| I don't know if I'm gonna get flamed for this, so if I offend anyone, I will apologize in advance, but I have never been a fan of the traditional toyota style rubber accordian shift boot.
Just wondering if anyone has modified theirs to use a leather boot, and how...
Did any models use a leather boot? and if so is there a bracket that I could use, or would this all have to be custom? | |

| Wow, thanks for all the pics guys. I guess there are multiple options.
I have to do a little more searching. | |

| It brings a lot more feeling to the drive compared to an auto, almost as if the car is more alive. I always feel detached from auto's when I'm driving, but with a stick it's almost like I'm less the driver and more a part of the car. | |
