god i hate those ugly rubber excuses they call shift foots for the FB

the nice guy at redlinegoods.com is going to make me one, and i will provide feedback and pics on the install so he can begin to market them

they're pretty sweet looking and you can customise them by color and stitching too...

the guy also wants to make a boot for the fb e-brake boot...he needs a pic of the e-brake assembly to see if it can be done...can someone please post a pic here and i'll send it to him...i maybe even get that ordered as well

Man..you're telling me...mine is falling apart...i'd really like a new leather black boot with some gray stitching...mmm....boot.

 

Yea, umm... what boot? I don't even have a shifter **** .

I looked at some of the pictures on there, and it looks like he does some AWESOME work. Rest assured, when he markets FB shifter boots, I'll be getting one.

 

well he will soon....he's gunna send me the prototype and once i write up my install, he'll be selling them...

c'mon someone take a pic of your e-brake so i can send it to him

 

here's a pic from my old 7 (may she RIP) but it has the plastic cover on it...

I could go and take a new pic but i'm not taking the plastic off...sorry

 

where did you get that shift boot?

thanks for the pic

does anyone think its even worth having a boot made fot the hand brake lever?

That shift boot looks like its very similar to my 87 and 89 929! Damn, i think i have to take a trip to the junkyard today! Why havent i thought of that before?

Oh yeah, my e-brake has a boot, i thought all SA`s had one?

 

Here's another shot of the shift boot from Inittab's car...(his interior is sooooo clean)



We ordered it from the link below...
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...category=33703

BTW, I'd be interested in a boot for the E-Brake...

 

I don't know who's bidding on that auction that has it up to $20.50, but I bought one from the same guy and I paid $6 plus shipping...Don't get all giddy, he has them on Ebay constantly.
http://www.lightningautocustoms.com/79-85rx7.htm this place also sells italian leather ones, and will give you almost any color and any color stitching you want.

 

Your welcome nick1 ask him if he ever received my shift boot mold that i sent him?

Not a close up, but this is the Ebay boot.

 

is the ebay boot good quality?

damn i didn't think anyone made one for the 1st gen....

i just want a good quality leather boot that doesn't look cheap....

i notice rotorhead.ca boot is vinyl..

here are some more pix to help with your decision...i don't think they are actually leather...but they do look better than the stock rubber...











rotorhead's looks good as well...i just went cheap with the ebay one...got it for like $15

 

or you could just go buy $10 in leather and sew it up yourself... not a complex job
