Shift Boot Replacement

I have a hurst shifter.
The boot is all deteriorated and falling apart.
I need a new one.
How do I change it? Where do I get one?
Why is it when I search for "Shifter Boot" I get irrelevent results and a thread about some one asking the highest LNF milage and another thread where some ones selling a 2006 Turbo swapped car?

I just ordered a redline goods boot also, Black Alcantara with blue 'baseball' stiching, along with an armrest cover with extra padding. Should be here next week!

yep. i just used our office staper and it worked... barely. but it did work. hardest part was prying the old staples out from the oem boot.

Got my boot installed, did it very quick and haven't cleaned it yet. Haven't installed the armrest cover yet or cleaned it. Did just lay it on top of the arm rest to give an idea of what it will look like
