Default Shift spheroid!

My post above is the "item" installed. There are a few different configurations that you can choose from when ordering. Do an ebay search for "shift **** 964 illuminated" and that will take you to it.

Johnygo - how was the install process? it looks Great!!

Install process is quick and easy. Pop the old boot out and off and remove and the new one fits right on (I put one wrap of electrical tape on the shifter first) and then tightens with 3 set screws. The LED's have plenty of wire to get power from the switches on the console. My orange lights match the console lights perfectly at night!!

Thanks for all the help guys. I should have a decent replacement coming from a fellow Rennlister in about a week.

Does anyone make Cashmere duct tape that I could use for repairs?
Are there any alternative ***** that would make use of the existing boot?

I have a cashmere **** off my C2 with 40k miles use. It is in pretty decent shape. I was hoping to get $75+ shipping for it. If you are interested I can send you some pictures tomorrow.

Default Thanks

I received a decent used ****+boot from a fellow Rennlister for a nice low price. I will get it installed soon, someday, in my spare time, ...

Thanks everyone.

If you change your mind and decide to do either a Sparco or MOMO shift ****, we are one of only two Warehouse Distributors in North America for both Sparco and MOMO and offer great deals on either line. If you decide to go that route, send us a PM for a great price on either one and I'll personally see that it ships out same day. We stock approximately 95% of every Sparco and MOMO shift **** made. Local San Antonio or Austin customers can walk into our store front and pick theirs up.

For those of you that may not know who we are and might ask questions or make comments like ehall did in THIS thread, we are located in San Antonio, Texas are are the Southern U.S. Tuning Master Distributor for Sparco as well as being a Warehouse Distributor for MOMO, both of which can see on each of their sites at www.sparcousa.com and www.momousa.com We are also Warehouse Distributors for Hawk Performance, KONI, Forge, ARP, and ContiTech. We have been in business for five (5) years and have two (2) locations here in San Antonio, as well as getting prepared to open a third in Houston, Texas.

Feel free to PM me if we can help.
