OEM Console and Shift Style Boot

Adele needed an interior makeover. The wifey was awesome enough to buy me the oem console for my birthday and I was able to get Shift Style to make me a new boot as well.

The boot is in alcantara with blue stitching and is 25mm shorter in length to accommodate for the shorter shifter I had installed previously (revo).

The quality of the OEM console is superb and It was pretty easy to install with instructions from Honda.

The boot is very nice, fitment was spot on and it looks great paired with my moddiction knob.
ShiftStyle is also super communicative via email and a breeze to do business with. I would recommend them for sure.

Here are the pics...
(I had to use tacks since I had no staples. It worked out fine)

Looks great! Worst part about changing that boot is dealing with the stupid staples. I had extra staples and had to hand bend them all into place... not so fun. But hopefully I'll never have to do it again... I'll try not to get too jealous of the alcantara.

It's really a nice piece. Yeah luckily Shift Style took the staples out for me. Made it much easier. I had sent them my boot as a template. It was pretty painless and even going to Poland and back only took like 20 days or something. I can't remember but it flew by.

And I had the console for a few days when I got word my boot was back in the states. So I just waited til it got here and did both installs at once.

The shift boot looks nice... I bought a cheapie on ebay ($8.50 including shipping) and used Gorilla Glue to attach it to the plastic trim... It doesn't look as nice as what you have and I haven't driven since it was installed so I don't know if the glue will hold so I might not be through messing with it yet... ;

The shift boot and center console look great. I'm really surprised how well the material on the console's tray door matches your seat covers.
