First, no need to double post in multiple topics!
Second, I would think you'd need a shift boot from a mtx, not a e-brake boot. I'm sure it can be done, but you'll lose your visual gear indicator next to the shifter, as it will be covered up by the boot.
I'd get a mtx shift boot, find a way to attach it to the console, and then tie it off at the top just underneath the shift handle. It'll probably take some fiddling, as I doubt anything out there will be a true bolt-on solution.
BrApple-its all in the way it is presented...but everythign on my resume is all me

 I'm kind of surprised you didn't yell "RICE!"
As to why someone would want to do it, well...why not? A shift boot would definitely look better than the naked shifter and the plastic gear indicator.

It's for the same reason anyone would want a boot on a manual. Would you run your car without a boot on the shifter? Nope.
Plenty of modern cars also have a boot on the autos.

I agree. I got bored of calling Tourige a jackass for all of his thoughtless posts. Most of it being horrible advice about stuff that he has ZERO experience with. Tourige should stay out some threads altogether(ie: Forced Induction!!!)

ozzz nozzz, a tourige bashing thread.. lmao.
As if any of you would throw a boot on an auto..
Here's what you do, get a shift boot from any hear contour, remove it from the base. Take out the shift selector piece on the auto and fab something up to hold it in place while you clip it in.
I like all the bashing about me not helping, yet all you retards do is "omg tourige sux, no help anyone!@!@111@" without posting any usefull information yourselves, if you have a problem with me, shoot me a PM, otherwise STFU
