Momo makes shift ***** which are universal just like 99% of other aftermarket shift *****.

They also make Universal shift boots which are quite nice,People usually buy this item either because there stock shift boot is in bad condition or most often they just do not like the stock shift boot which is kind of ugly in my opinion.

these will be made for the Maxima. Not a Universal one. The guys says their made of naughahyde. Ill try and get a few pics up but i dunno if any of you guys are interested or not. Im gonna get one for myself. Prolly a silver one. I like the feel of the aftermarket ones cause the stock ones feel all cheapy and sometimes they tear. Later

Re: what about e-brake covers? oem feels like

The problem that i have with my current **** is that it doesn't sit flush with the boot. There's is a small gap. That's why i was planning on getting the momo universal that threads into a momo ****. Is there any way to do this without going the momo route.

I would if I hadn't just bought the Momo

Although it fits like it was made for the Max. I'm more interested in the e-brake. Mine's trashed. I was thinking about making a new one myself, but If they make one, I'd be interested.

I found a company that makes both leather shift boots and leather E-brake covers for the Maxima. They mailed me a couple of leather samples and it seems to be a fairly nice grade leather. Since I have a Momo ****, I've ordered the Momo universal boot to avoid the gap at the bottom of the shifter ****. I'll probably go ahead and get the leather E-brake cover from Agla as that vinyl cover nissan puts on there looks like it should be in a mid 80's Chrysler K-car. Here's Agla's web address:

http://www.aglausa.com

I believe that they charge 44.95 (plus S/H) each for the covers.

cleather

I know the guys name we want to contact is Edward Adato, and his site is http://www.cleather.com He used to be a 4th gen owner, and his car got wrecked. I believe he will still make both boots for us. I am not sure how to get in touch with him though.
