Damn it guys. went to the site and now i want both boots and the armrest cover. you all cost me more than my girlfriend. if everyone could pitch in a buck or two it wouldnt cost me a penny and i would forgive everybody for spending all my money
That looks really good, Tabres. :thumbsup:
I plan on doing that next after I get my car tuned. I hate those little plastic covers they used instead of leather boots. :bash:

LoL! My girl is getting me the shift boot and parking boot for my birthday. I've decided to go with the yellow stitching as well
I'm hoping to get mine soon ... I've already sanded down the area I'm going to apply the Velcro to. All I have to do is clean it with some alcohol, get the boot ready, and slap it in (that sounds kind of hap-hazard, huh?).
Photos to follow ...
Don't you guys spend all your money too soon - don't forget those hazy headlight lenses (if the shoe fits):

My boot got here today ... it was in a big-ass European type envelope, with a bunch of stamps on it from Poland - no papers or anything :read: , just the boot. The leather looks real fine, like glove leather, and is very thin. I'll probably start putting it in Sat or Sun ... the friggin' outside Christmas lights can wait!. I'll take photos.

It's funny. My Father (who ordered it for me for Christmas) was telling me that the company told him about how on the shipping form they have to lie and say the boots are made of simulated leather just to get them into the country to avoid problems with the animal rights groups. Pretty funny if you ask me.
Yes, they told me the same thing in an E-Mail ...

Well, I got my new Redline Goods emergency brake handle boot project finished today ...
I tucked most of the slack down into the console cavity.
I think the boot looks pretty cool - a hell of a lot better than the flappers.
I left the handle cover that's below the hand-grip, off. I think it will allow more room when pulling the handle. Mine has a little slop in it, so I use a little side pressure (towards the passenger seat) on the handle, to keep from rubbing the boot against the console and tearing it.
Like I said, it came from Poland ...
All in all, I'm totally satisfied with the boot :banana: , and I'd like to thank Tabres for his help in getting me started, and the photos he gave to us :thumbsup: ... thanks, Bryan :beer:

hey dan, nice floor mats. are they stock? my mom got me some sweet ones for christmas. they are the "saddle" interior so that it matches everything, and have a cobra stitched into them.
Ha-ha-aaaaaa ... no, mine are just some cheapies from Auto Clone, to keep the new carpet looking clean. My OEM floor mats are in the trunk. The driver's side has a friggin grease stain in it from the dick that test drove the Cobra when I was getting the transmission estimated for a rebuild :mj: , three years ago.
Any words on the headlight lenses yet?
I have a "write-up" for this install on a new Web Page:

Mine's been staying in place just great ... haven't heard a peep out of it yet. I do keep side pressure on the handle (towards the pass. side) whenever I move it - that keeps the boot from scraping on the sharp edge inside the slot in the console.

Whoa! Diggin up an old thread but I have a question. I'm thinking about getting the shift boot/ebrake boot from these guys and I was wondering if any of you ordered the custom size for the shift boot due to the size difference between stock and the short throw. I've got a tri-ax and I can't find out how much shorter it is than stock any where and I've even emailed Steeda!
If any of you guys know I would be really appreciative!

I have a tri-ax handle on mine and it fits perfect. I will try and get some pictures but I am camera-less right now.
I didn't order the custom size - just "96 Cobra" size - it will fit. I have the MGW chrome gripper handle as well and it actually hides the top of the boot very nicely!

Cool, that's good to know. I just didn't want there to be anything showing beneath the knob and I don't mind a little excess material towards the base. I'd love to see some pics when you can manage it. I've got all black leather interior so I'm thinking about going black with black stitching on the boots.
Yeah - there is actually more slack with the Redline boot - it is a little loose at the top but like I said - the MGW hides it.
I have the black with tan stitching for black/tan interior combo. Once lexol'ed up it is sharp - one of the best cheap mods I did.
It's funny because you'll get the mail from Poland I believe if you order through them. Comes quick too!

lol, old thread... saw this and thought "who the hell is bumping my thread from like 4 years ago?"
No input on the size of the shifter boot, but I'll just add to my parking brake boot is holding up extremely well and still looks virtually brand new :beer:
