He probably broke the plastic tabs that hold the shift boot frame in place, like I did. Just silicone it into place. Holds fine.

Madison - I could have used the stock boot if i hadn't thrown it away. im not sure about the knob tho, probably. this one just screws off so i imagine. I also threw away my stock knob, not sure y tho...

Thanx for the comments guys. I absolutely love my short throw! If you don't have it, you def have to get it. It was pretty easy to install(Tom) and fits just like OEM. It didn't come with instructions but we just went with it. I found a very helpfull write up when i searched too.

themarin8r - Actually if i ever get some pictures up you would see that the red boot does match my dash cover which is red and black. the vents and air bag cover are red. thanx tho.

Yea now that i think about it, i wish i did keep my stock stuff to sell on here and/or ebay. o well.

thanx again guys!

Not trying to thread jack, but how is the quality of those eBay short shifters compared to B&M? I'm going to be getting a short throw in a week or so. I'd love to save $80 if I wouldn't be skimping on quality too much.

I drove seans car after I helped install it. Drove pretty smooth and not notchy or anything like that.

i opted against the cheapo knockoff and bought the real B&M... hopefully it holds up for ya, but i didnt want to risk it. i would hate to be driving down the road and my shifter falls apart. i do like the chrome knob on that one tho. the B&M isnt that shiney.



Re: lookie what i got!
