Default shift boot recovering kit - who sells it in the US?

I found a link in a previous post for type911.com which is overseas. They sell a kit to recover the shift **** for the 5-speed - does anyone know who carries this product in the US? I don't want to have to get the dealer version for $200!

Below is a picture of the product:

Last night was a good night of car fixin' - I fixed my gauge as I described in another post, and also recovered my shifter ****! I ordered the replacement cover from Type 911- they were great. The shipping and tax and all that from the UK to California was not bad, and it came very fast! I am very impressed!

Anyhow, as soon as I find my digital camera (!) I will post the pictures about the install - it went great, and the instructions provided by type911.com were right on. There are a couple of parts that are helpful that I found out, which I'll post when I find that stinking camera!

The shift **** looks like new for a quarter of the price of the dealer part, and my fingers are just a bit sore!
