original GM leather shift boot
I'm so sick of the cheap aftermarket shift boots out there that look like crap.
Does anybody have a real GM shift boot for a manual transmission that still looks good?

Re: original GM leather shift boot
thanks, I was hoping for real leather. If I can't find one, I'll have one made locally

Re: original GM leather shift boot
Sorry. You will have to find somebody who has some real leather scraps laying around. I don't unfortunately. Genuine leather is expensive and that's why it's not laying around my shop. Have a great day!
