rubber shift boots

i was thinking that is might be nicer to have a decent looking rubber shift boot than a leather one, because the rubber is just so much more practical

in a certain type of interior, mink would look pretty sweet

but, the saabs rubber is 13 years old with 259000 miles worth of shifts on it, and its in excellent shape
