got mine yesterday, don't know how well they'll fit as the car is at the shop still. Wondering about the top of the shifter boot, does that unfinished end just stick up like that? also curious to know if there are instructions for the ebrake book install. does the handle come off? easily? It looks like the opening would be too small to slip over the top of the handle, but I don't have the car to confirm, any insight on how you installed yours would be helpful.

Since Pictures are better than words, here are some pictures on how to fit a shifter boot on the bottom of the plastic trim:

And here is how to attach the e-brake boot to the e-brake. You need to turn the boot inside out first and put it on backwards but right side up. Same applies to the shifter boot. This way you can adjust the fit to different shifter knobs. Also see pictures on how e-brake handle is fitted with the boot.

Well, looks like it doesn't fit the 94-96 dash style. The pegs stick out at a different angles, the tabs are all different, and the measurements between the parts all all different.

The sides are shorted, the back not as wide, and the front wider. I've been speaking with Taras and we are looking into it.

Because everyone has a different shift knob, the boots were designed to have the top end be wrapped inside and be mounted to the shifter with a zip-tie. This way you can adjust it to whatever shifter knob you want. I'll post some pictures.

Kudos to Taras and Perry for this Group Buy!!!

I just finished installing my Leather E-Brake boot, and it is a perfect fit!
They used top Quality Leather and the stitching is excellent!

Good work guys!
