GenIV Console Shifter Boot Retainer

I'm currently working on putting a GenIV console into my GTA since my T56 swap and I'm looking for someone that sells the retainer or an aftermarket style retainer for the shift boots. I want to go with an aftermarket style shift boot, but they don't come with the retainers and would need to find one before I can order. I've looked around and even been to the dealership and can't get a retainer. Any help would be great in helping to locate one of these. Thanks.

Re: GenIV Console Shifter Boot Retainer

out of curiousity, where'd you finally find what you're looking for? I just picked up a console and it looks like it may need a new boot retainer.

Re: GenIV Console Shifter Boot Retainer

I really hate saying this at the risk of taking Stephen's thunder, but there are several pictures of GenIV consoles bing put into GenIII cars posted here on TGO. It's all in what you do to it that makes them unique to the car. I'm still working on gathering peices for mine so it isn't in the car yet.
