since the opennings are the same just get a boot from a car with a manual and it should snap right in ...

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
Haha, good point. I look at things like this...There ARE dumb posts by all sorts of people, but bashing and not helping does nothing to fix the problem. Do your one line of bashing, andother lne of saying search, and lastly try and help them with their problem. It's not that difficult. (And this isn't directed towards anyone in particular but to everyone)

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.
I used an E-brake oot from a chevy T-Blazer, (told you I'd have pics up today) I had to do some slight fabs to it, like sodder the wire for OD back together, I used 2 sided mounting tape and curled it under to make it look a bit more modern...
Pros: looks a lot better, I like the bigger than fit look, so the shifter looks baggy, the T-Blazer boot has a stretch band, so no need to tie off
Cons: I let my mother drive my car and she needs to see what gear she has it in so she ripps the thing up from time to time until I put the mounting tape on it.
Mine actually covers up the OD button with the way I have it folded, so you can't see it, but it is easily accessible.
Sorry the pics are such poor quality... Motorola Razr is the type of camera I'm using if you can find a way to lighten the pics up, I promise they look much better.... better pics to come...
This one has the E-brake and the shifter to compare.

That is pretty nice, but, not to be mean, it looks like a used condom. Maybe if it was a bit smaller I might do the same with my shifter.

hmmm....hadn't considered leather as material for a condom. Think I'll send a quick e-mail to Trojan. Who knows, maybe you're on to something?
j/k
BTW, the boot on the automatic shifter doens't look half bad, Originally posted by jtour:
