Well my stocker has had it. Debating on replacing it with this. Thoughts?

I believe someone bought one on here before and there was a lot of fitment issues

What could there be to say

 

How did it hold up?

 

Unless you have patience for fitment I'd look at another one. It will work but as any universal item, you're going to have to fidget with it.

 

I've got a brand new shift boot and e brake boot for sale if you're interested.

 

Just get one from Redline Goods.

 

Its alright, you gotta keep in mind that it is 8 bucks. It needs to be customized to work. If your not willing to do that, bring it to a upholstery shop, and I bet they will make it look real nice, compared to me, if not, go buy the stuff meant for cobalts.. I personally will be switching it out when I go with a STS.

 

What did you have to do in order for it to work?

 

Take the little metal ring out, make the whole bigger for the stock plastic piece, then you have to re-sow the stitching. then at the bottom, you need a powerful stable gun to stable it back to the plastic . Other then that put it on.

Personally if your old shift boot is torn, ripped, ugly looking, and just need a replacement for a little while, go for it. .

If its not, and it looks fine, leave it be.

 

It is coming apart. It sounds pretty simple. Thanks for your help.
