Default shifter booth and shifter ****

Hi guys, I need to change those 2 things, **** and booth.
I was searching on the forum to see if I need to get the whole console out, or is there a trick to get the booth off with out removing the console.

and also, where can I buy a leather booth? Do I need to make it custom if I want to put an after market shift ****?

thanks in advance

The shifter boot and **** are usually one piece covered in leather but PCNA did offer wood shift *****. Many owners will do the **** with an aftermarket piece and the boot in leather. There are many on eBay.

thanks for the tip, but are they a direct fit?
I mean for the after market leather booth and shifter, or will I have to work it out?

I currently have a 997 **** and custom boot under construction at AGLA. I'll post pics as soon as I get it installed. Alan says it should be done by Friday. We'll see...

i can help.... after hemming my 968 shift boot on to my 997 **** (perfect fit), i simply polished it with 303
protectant.


the important thing is to cut the stock shift boot off with a razor right at the base of the ****


so you have plenty of length to make the new hemline. https://rennlist.com/forums/968-foru...uld-to-it.html
