Help! Boot fix

Well when i bought my car it did not come with shift or ebrake boot. Now i bought a pair from redlinegoods.com. They don't come with the wires that hold the boots to the console. So someone told me to make my own, and as crafty as i tried to be it still does not look right. Anyone knows where i can get these wires from or someone can make them for me 95max.
My second question is the top part of the boots does that also carry wires or what holds it firmly to the shift stick or e-brake stick? Maybe pics would explain better, i'll try to upload it if i can.
Thanks
Shawn

Have you looked at the install instructions on redlinegoods' site? Mine were pretty clear and showed how the rings at the bottom and top of the shift boot were installed.

You need the wires from the OEM boot to install the new boots.....also I have problems with my boots as well....they didnt fit at all! The leather was too thick to fit into the grooves under the console.....also the boot opening around the shifter was not secured in any way, and was very loose....didnt fit! I emailed the seller and he offered to replace them but I would have had to ship them all the way to poland! Anway, they are stitting in a box and I still have no boots! You can have the wires from my old boots if you want.....just paypal me shipping.....I am just going to buy new OEM boots, which I assume come with enw wires, since they were sewn into the old boot....

Yes i did get the instructions but mine showed nothing about the top rings. Also did i mention that i had to custom make my wiring to fit the boot and console. Which i also had some fitting issuses but i had to force it in there.
