It's for my 91 240sx. black leather. Would I have to remove knob? Thanks.

I got a leather boot from them, excellent quality. It really adds to the interior of the car and feels oh-so-nice!

ok, i installed it. it is not at all designed to fit my car. the above is link to pic. I did not use the ring at all. I guess i could cut off the top elastic and fit through ring. as it is , it is way too long for my car. i don't mind how it looks but i'm not picky. the light i used makes the leather look plastic.

The leather is thicker than the vinyl stock one especially at the joints where it is sewn. It seems ok without using the ring.Anyone picky would want one that is designed specifically for 240sx.
