Step 1. Grab the ring within the base of the factory shift boot, push the ring towards the front of the car, and lift up to disengage it. Remove the factory boot and ring from the car.
Step 2. If you are installing the e-brake boot as well, remove the top piece of the center console: Open your center console door and grab the top center console piece right behind the cup holder (arrows). Push forward and lift up to disengage the piece from the console. Disconnect the traction control wires and ash tray light. Also remove the center console pocket light that is located at the rear of this piece. It does not need to be disconnected, just remove the black clip from the top and slide the light out the bottom.
Step 3. Remove the factory boot from the ring and replace with the new shift boot.
Step 4. Align the new shift boot with the ring and cut the slits for the side and rear teeth of the ring. Make sure to leave enough room for your lever travel. Test it in the car before you make ANY cuts. If you are installing just the shift boot, reinstall everything in reverse order and you are done.
Step 5. If you are installing the e-brake boot asa well, remove the three 10mm bolts that hold the center console down (circles). Pull your e-brake up as far as it will go. Lift the rear of the center console up and lift out. Make sure the console light is fed down through its hole as to not snag, and make sure to unclip the wires from the rear of the lighter outlet. Remove from the car.
Step 6. Turn the center console over and remove the factory rubber e-brake plate from the console. Simply pull off of the plastic teeth (circles). Save the rubber plate. Align the new e-brake boot with the factory rubber plate and cut the slits for the front and rear teeth (the sides should already be cut into the boot).
Step 7. Insert the teeth of the console into the slits in the new e-brake boot, and then reinstall the factory rubber plate to help keep the boot in place. You may also want to place some hot-glue over the teeth to make sure they hold.
Step 8. Reinstall the center console into the car. Feed the e-brake into the boot and make sure the seat belt buckles are not stuck under the console. Make sure the feed the console light through its opening, reattach the wires to the power outlet. Gently snug the three 10mm bolts.
Step 9. Reinstall the top piece of the center console. Make sure to reattach the traction control wires, the wires to the ash tray light, and the center console pocket light.
Step 10. Reinstall the shift boot and shift knob.
