shift boot step 1

Step 1. Removing the shift knobs on SC's can be quite difficult. Take a 15 mm or adjustable wrench and place it under the shift knob. Some like to place a cloth or other soft material to prevent damage to the shift knob or lever.

Step 2. Pull off the rubber boot. Install the leather boot over the rubber boot (the rubber will provide the base and structure for the leather boot. You can trim off the top part of the rubber boot, but make sure to keep the bottom (around half of it at least). Reinstall.
