i did EVERYTHING to try and fit a boot on but it was near impossible....it can only be done with REALLY thin leather...i used a 6mt boot from leatherseats.com and it didnt fit...they were reallly helpful and sent 3 more boots all diff sizes to try and get it right...but in the end the leather is too thick to shove the ring back over it

 

Ive seen some pictures of some of you guys who have done it, Pleae give me your magical secrets...

 

why go through this when you can just pick up a MANUAL car. it cost you $1500 more when buy AT and have to mod it so it will look like "Stick" car?

 

two hours of traffic jam commute 5 days a week. PERIOD. thanks for the help though bubble...

 

for those of you who have done this mod with the momo shift boot, did you trim the 1-1.5 inches all the way around the bottom of the boot? or did u just install the boot as is? please answer!

Man what an easy mod to do! I installed my momo auto shift **** and momo boot in less than an hour. Looks awesome too! I am going to have a buddie make me a replacement ring since the OEM one is a little to tight to go around the shift boot. My boot btw was the short boot which had the elastic on the bottom. I just tucked it under the panel and it looks good even without the silver ring around it. Will posts some pics when it get the metal ring back.
Btw- I didn't have to cut my boot, it fit fine in mine.

 

u freakin posers! lol, looks good. like mine all the time... stock...

 

Yea! what he said.
Seriously, you need to shave a few millimeters of the inside diameter of the trim ring to slip it over the thick leather boot. You need a dremel tool to do this. But then again, you'll need to buy another trim ring (fairly cheap) if you decide to take the boot off and return to stock.

 

will this work on a g35?

 

MOMO Performance boot....If I do go with the auto ****. Do I buy the short or long boot? BTW who's got the best price? I was amazed on the many suppliers that sell MOMO w/different prices too! Why can't I just put the boot over the OEM ****? Thanks!

 

I just did the boot thing this week. Got a CF looking boot made out of some kind of thin material from AutoZone. Just cut the elastic off the bottom of the boot and it went right on. Did not have to remove any tabs off the trim ring.

txsunset...Nice & you have a good lookin' Z too!

 

LMAO! Are you wishing you had a manual, or just sick of getting ragged on for buying an AT?

 

Drove a 6mt fbody for the last 4 years and got tired of all the quickest cars being autos.

 

So far the best price I found is at LTB Motorsport - Auto **** (only 1) $96.90. Performance boot $51.00 - free shipping over $100.00 - less than $100.00 it's $6.75.
Can I still put the Performance boot over my OEM ****? Thanks!

 

Did you have a boob job because you wished you had breasts , or just sick of getting ragged on for having a flat chest? LMAO!

 

 

SluggoZ- I got mine there as well, shifter **** and boot. I looked all over until I found this site. Heres a pic of my install, ring is coming.
