Custom color ebrake and shift boot possibility.

Check out the 4th gen example on their website: http://www.leatherseats.com/

I emailed Leatherseats.com and here is what they said:
>We don't have a pattern for shift boot because there has not been any demand for it. We would love to custom cut and sew one for you, but we would need you to send us the factory boot to use as a pattern. As for the e-brake boot we never patterned it because there is not one on the car from the factory. We could develope one, but we would need a 5th generation Maxima to do so. We can do them in any of our 50+ colors.

>They are $39.99 in vinyl and $49.99 in leather.

>Thanks,

Just thought some people might be interested. I'm thinking about sending in my stock shift boot. Now we just need someone in the Oklahoma City area to test fit for the leather e-brake handle. I think if you choose the right colors(50+ choices, DAMN) you could really set off the interior especially if you also go with their two-tone seat covers.

Post if you would be interested. I'll tell him the address to check out the thread for the demand on something like this. Thanks!

It's the piece of leather that surrounds the shifter bar.. If you have an auto, you don't have this!!...

Update!

Anyone up for DONATING their shift boot for a good cause?

Now we just need to get someone in the area for the e-brake handle.

Mark me down!

I would be interested in a leather one.

I have Frost Leather Interior.

I'm not sure of the most common 5th gen interiors. I assume Frost and Black leather. Then cloth?
