How To - Shift **** for 5AT
Step 1.
Removing the shift ****. This is easy part. At the bottom of the **** itself youll see a silver trim peace. Grab it and pull down, it should slide down minumal force. Next is the retaining clip, use a needle nose pliers and pull from the front. Next slide up the **** and the trim peace.
See pictures

Step 2
This part i measured the depth of the inside of the MOMO AT shift **** and transfered that to the shift link, that way you can easly possition the rubber/plastic adaptor that comes with the MOMO.

Step 3
At these step you can ether go with the Shift **** as is, as pictures, or you can install a MT shift boot with the ****. I went with the shift boot to give it a manual look and feel.
Next is to cut the boot to a lenght that will fit the AT. As pictures i went to 6.5-6.75" in length for the cut. Next slide the boot and screw collet over the shift link. Next install the set screws per the manufacture instructions. Then slide the new know down the shift link untell it stops were the black adaptor is set at. If you push the **** down to far you will end up pushing down the blue shift link. That is why i measured and transfered from **** to shaft in Step2.
Use the allen wrench that came with the shift **** and tighten the set screws down. Next take the shift boot and screw the collet to the bottom of the shift ****.

Step 4
This part is them tricky one, and may take alittle time and patents. Slip the bottom of the shift boot over the round shift indicator plate, dont slide it down to far or the silver trim ring wouldnt fit. Slide maybe a 1/8"-1/4" down just enough for the trim ring to hold it. Like i said take your time with this step.

Ok this is my how-to AT shift ****, maybe we can make it a sticky?
This is a very nice interior mod. Makes it feel like a manual shifter but having a AT.
