Hondahunter Posted October 9, 2008 Share Posted October 9, 2008 With an aftermarket shift knob, what do you do to keep your boot held up? AM knobs are obviously a lot shorter than the stock one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmgogo Posted October 9, 2008 Share Posted October 9, 2008 heres what i did. first remove the knob, and the shifter console. Next get some regular ol carboard, wrap it around the shifter a couple of times, and very tightly duct tape it. then put the console back on and make it so the shift boot "O" ring sits on top of the carboard, then screw back on the shifter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xeryon Posted October 9, 2008 Share Posted October 9, 2008 Hrmm, I always thought that was how it was supposed to be. Never owned any car where the boot firmly connected with the knob. (that sounds pretty kinky if you ask me ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm pretty picky about stuff sometimes and I think the boot drooped down looks retarded, at least for my preferences. I was going to say it looked ghetto then I was like wait, I'm using cardboard and duct tape to fix it >_< . But I like the idea! Mike, you have any Viagra lying around? Most of us here work properly!

Mitchness Posted October 9, 2008 Share Posted October 9, 2008 You could always just go to the hardware store and buy a rubber O ring or washer with an ID that is slightly smaller than the shifter stem and wedge it down over the shifter. That should hold the boot ring up. Less duct tape involved too... not to bash, Cory. Yours is a legit idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
