Default Looking for this Shift **** and Boot

Robbed this photo from another thread as I really like the shift **** and the black boot.

Does anyone know if its Porsche OEM?

That looks great in the Cashmere interior.

I bought one of those about a month ago. Took one week to get to California. I was surprised by the high quality. Can't go wrong if you like the look. I even hooked up the led to the button lights in the center console.

Sorry to hijack, I have a Carbon Fibre MY02 shifter
with light grey boot cover if interested. You can always swap out
boot cover with yours. CF shifter in excellent condition.

At Gerts for $525, I'll sell for $275 if anyone interested.

I've had one for approx 1 year. I liked it so much and didn't want to get ripped trying to explain why, so I neglected to say anything on this forum. It's very high quality and I have the shift pattern light up red when I turn my lights on. I ordered it off ebay and had originally ordered the white LED lights. The white turned out to be too bright and I emailed the company. Great customer service regardless of the language barrier (comes from Germany) as I paid a nominal fee to get the red LED lights. They sent back a kit with instructions on how to remove and install the new LED. By the way, the ebay ad I used was in english.

ble2011,

When Red above posted the German Ebay link I immediately popped into the U.S. version and searched "Porsche 993 Shift ****" and voila! Same vendor but in English.

If I wasn't happy with the Carbon Fiber shifter/hand brake I have - that would be the one I would order!
