My shifter boot needs to be replaced. What is the procedure for switching it out for a new boot?

A snap ring on the underside of the tunnel holds the boot in place. The tunnel needs to come off.

As Sinovac says, the tunnel needs to come off. Getting the parking brake cover off can be challenging. There is a vendor here that sells an alternate shifter bezel and boot. You might do a search and look for pics to see if you like it.

Oh, and if you haven't seen it mentioned before, use lots of blue tape.

Andrew at Exoticare has the e-brake boot...as well as hot buttons, fat shifter sleeve and shifter boot, etc.

I have the exoticare unit in now. It looks great but the leather boot has a tear. Since I will need to change it are the original parts available
