T56 Swap - Seal the Shifter hole?

To everyone who has done a t56 swap. What did you use to seal the shifter opening in the floor pan now that the shifter has moved locations?


thanks!

The OE boot.


I cut the floor the absolute least I could, and the OE boot still fit its with hardware in the OE locations. It was a tight fit, but... instead of the OE hardware, I used Tnnerman clips. Not so invasive really. Not all cars would be guaranteed to do this but you should at least try.
