1. First unscrew the shift knob to take the shift boot out.
2. Carefully pry along the trim along the edges of the boot to take
it off, you can either use your hands (which I did) or a screw driver with towel
wrapped around it.

|
3. Now that the shift boot and its trim are out, carefully remove the
vinyl boot from the frame (an x-acto knife will work great for that purpose).
Clean the frame carefully with sandpaper of any glue/vinyl residue. |
 |
|
4. To install the shift boot you must glue the boot in the plastic
frame. Any epoxy-based glue (3M makes some great glues for that purpose) will
work perfectly. Just glue the boot in (make sure the shorter stitching is facing
towards the front of the car). |
 |
|
5. Then reinstall the boot and frame assembly (it
will latch into place once you squeeze it in). |
 |
|
6. The same principle applies to installing the ebrake boot - pry the
boot and frame out of the car... |
 |
|
7. ... cut off the old boot, glue the new one and
re-install. |

Useful tip
You have installed a product made out of genuine leather. As you know, to maintain a leather product in good condition, you should take care of it. We suggest occasionally (every 4-6 week for example) applying some leather conditioner/UV protector to keep your leather from drying up in the sun and cracking.
