Home made boot + new Knob.

[Hon2BMW]

Just made my self a new shift boot, I should have remembered to take pics of how I did it. Its pretty easy. Stitchings not all that even but Oh well, if I had a sewing machine or didn't keep stabbing myself with the needle it would of probably come out better.

New shift knob as well:

What shift lever you got in there? Looks to be one of the shorter ones?

I'm not sure, It was in the car when I bought it, I thought it was stock. Maybe its just the new knob that makes it look shorter, it's about two to three inches lower than the stock knob.

hm...

I think you should have use better fabric. That looks like the standard vinyl you get at local stores. ultrasuede FTW. Also velour, or even vinyl that has much harder leatherique look. They are ofcourse a bit more pricey, but for a shift boot and ebrake boot I can imagine it be more than 10 bucks.

looks like it was stitched by hand... by that i mean it looks like shit but i guess gj for uniqueness??
