Anyone else buy this for their CVT's?

I like the look of my shift boot, but I got nasty sticky things stuck in the wedges that won't come out. Don't ask why. I'm probably gonna buy this. Seems like a nice clean easy mod. Oh and my friend has it in his Benz and it makes the interior look very nice.

Nah...the factory shift gate for the automatic looks classy and this boot looks a bit tacky. Then again, if you like it buy it! :biggrin:

Yeah it should be here later this week. If I don't like it, it'll probably just end up in my closet with all my other OEM things. I'll post pictures later if anyone else is interested in what it turns out to look like.

I'm keeping the shift knob stock because I can't find one on the internet that I like and that works for an automatic. But it isn't that hard to switch from what I've read.

I like the look of the manual shift boot, but you have to buy the manual plate as well

Yeah looks good. That wouldn't fit with the cvt shift boot would it?

Redline makes great products. Do a search here on NICO, I believe they are still a sponsor and they often post coupons.

Oh dang wish I knew that earlier... And thanks again for the lip. I dropped it off to get it painted for a really good price

Well after waiting so long.... Finally got it today and installed it. I ordered it on November 22, received it December 14.
Here's a picture of what it looks like right out of the package.

Here it is installed. Took 15 minutes. I like it, it makes the interior look nice and clean. Redline goods is really great and they offer nice customer support. I'd recommend it to anyone. They give $5 back if you post pictures on a forum and then contact them,

These never looked right to me when they're covering the shift gate. Would look 10x better inside the gate... Reminds me of a diaper.
