Default Help with some interior issues (shift **** and leather seat switches)

Ok, to start off, i bought my 04 touring as a theft recovery in the summer, and ive been trying to clean up what the previous owner messed up. So far there is nothing wrong mechanical (knock on wood), BUT the interior dash was very scratched up, radio wasn't working, seat switches hardly worked, and if you look closely there are signs of a very bad repaint on the front and right side of the car, not to mention the humongous 20 inch chrome rims that came with the car (there are pics in my gallery if you want to see).

So far ive fixed the radio, repainted the dash and side pieces, swapped the rims for a decent set of g35 rims, and i will be getting it repainted in the spring.

Now onto business, i checked out the switches to adjust how far back and angle, and it looks like they are somewhat broken, and sticky as hell, is there somewhere where i can buy a new set of them.

and i know that alot of you z owners are very opposed to putting a shift boot on an AT Z, but i think the prnd silver plate looks very big and out of place, now im not trying to make my car look like a manual z, just more pleasurable to my eye, is there anyway to put a shift boot on a stock at ****, and does anyone have pics.

Any help is very appreciated and i would like to say thank you in advance.

You're welcome.

You definitely ought to check the link that ITOzann left to see if you can get a better price. The sponsor says 25% off, but you know how that goes sometimes.

I'm not by any means an "anti-chrome" guy, but good choice in taking those off. NOT a sports car wheel.

i know exactly what you mean, i absolutely hated them from the second i bought the car, but i got a really good deal on my z so i decided to buy the car and change the rims later.

and the g35 rims were only 400 and they came with new rear tires
