Awesome, I want the boot. I do have a paypal account, but it's new and I am not super familiar with how to use it. I could do a personal check also - assume you would cash it, let it clear, then ship the boot?

hey would you be able to make the shift boot a tad longer? I'm looking to throw in a X3 or X5 shifter for a taller shifter, but same throw distance.

Sure, I can adjust length...

at the top or bottom?

What material do you want. Like 2 inches longer? Ill adjust ratio and make the pattern taller and skinnier

Matt, wanted to give you some feedback - received the boot yesterday, got a squarish Euro Febi shift knob as well - going to install them this weekend!

Looks great, happy to have read this thread.
As for installation, I see from a few links on the web that the plastic frame around the bottom will need to be re-used.

To access the frame, I cut the old, existing boot to gain access, pinch or in some way remove the frame (squeeze the tangs inward?) and then glue the new boot in place on the frame, wait for it to dry, then re-install via a snap-in type motion?

Thanks again, the black vinyl and black stitching looks understated, yet classy. I am going for a mostly OEM+ look.
