Redline Shift Boots! *Canadian Members*

Price: Only about $55.00 CAD after conversion

Installation: You need to go online for instructions but you basically need two tools and it takes about 20 minutes

Shipping: Meh
Even though the order was pretty expensive and international they didn't ship it via a method that included a tracking number. Luckily it arrived within a week without any problems.

What do I think?
- The boot has velcro on the top so you don't have to squeeze or perform voodoo crap when installing. Just undo velcro install and then firmly redo velcro. SO EASY and it'll sit nice and flush with the shifter.
- It's built to last, thickness of the shifter boot at the bottom is ~0.78 mm, thickness of the shifter boot at the top (not measuring velcro) ~2.05 mm and the weight is 55 g...

Rather buy this than dealership one and I also saved $40+ dollars which is almost enough to get their e-brake one :P

I like the red! Probably goes well with a darker colored car. I have these and went black with white stitching. Really well made.

The only thing I don't like is the fitment of the e-brake. I had mine on for a couple months, but it just didn't fit right, and the fitment over the rubber part is not really an option. It kind of gets in the way of being able to play the ebrake all the way down if you install it within the rubber part too.

Good choice though. Install it!
Also, get the ebrake boot too. Maybe you can figure out a better install method and share.

Does the e-brake boot have a hole to adjust the cable easily?

Love RedlineGoods shift boots! Can vouch for their great quality.

Back when I first bought them (e-brake wasn't fully fitted)

The second pic does show that the e-brake boot fits a little weird, but I believe that could be remedied by trimming the rubber surround a bit. I never bothered.
