the plastic piece inside my shift boot broke as i changed to a short shifter. is there a part number for those things? can you get just the plastic piece or do i need and entirely new boot? its the gray plastic piece thats stapled to the inside of the boot.

I broke mine about a year ago and would also like to know the answer to this. I ve looked on fredbean parts and I cant find anything, not even the boot.

I believe i had one looped through one of the holes on the rear of the plastic piece and it was wrapped around the ciggarate lighter plug on the underside. I believe i then put one on the other hole and wrapped it around a plastic stud on the underside of console piece. This way one ziptie pulled to the one side and the other pulled to the other to keep the boot spread out in the back. Mines not 100% perfect...on one side there is a little bit of gap between the boot and the shifter console piece but not enough to bother me. btw mine only broke on the rear where it connects together..not sure where yalls broke at.

doubt it. my friend is the tech. he's also my club leader. the guy that approves warranties, approves everything we bring in as long as we give good feedback on the survey. i just wanted to get a p/n so i could get him to order it beforehand. im goin on saturday to get it checked out.

because they are made of some fairly thin plastic especially at certain points ...not hard if your not too carefull
