Talking Home-made shift boot (pics)

Well I got tired every time I shifted my shift boot would come out of the console. The plastic clip was broken into 10 pices. I used some gorrilia glue and it help up nicely. Now while the glue was drying overnight I decided to do this







I know I need a new knob. haha. I know it is not perfect but, it was a easy 2$ mod haha.

You did a really good job, looks a lot like a GTO boot with the red stitching.
