Leather Gaiter

I've used UK eBay seller "top gaiters" in the past and have been very satisfied with the quality and price.  I'm not sure whether the gaiters in the UK consoles are different from the Au ones though, so wonder whether anyone has bought one of these and has an opinion.

They do one for the handbrake too:

Thanks.

    I bought the gear stick gaiters from the UK and they are crap, good leather and sewn well BUT around the gear stick they have aloops with a cable tie going it and the design does not match our consuls, I bought 6 and have another 6 sent as I told them theysent the wrong ones but they were all the same, I chopped em up and used for other stuff

    Sorry you read you got taken so badly, and very glad I asked.  It's a shame the Escort ones are no good as the one I bought for my other car is first rate.  Might have to look at making my own.

    I had one made by a local trimmer using my old one as a template.  He knocked it up in 5 minutes and charged me $10.00.
