Gear Shift Boot
Hi Guys,
Trying to find a Vinyl/Leather gear level cover to suit Escort Mk2 Console. Can any one recommend a "off the Shelf Version".
Thanks,
John

It's not a bad idea Sterling, I used to have a manual BA and the boot in them are attached to an outer ring and by removing the ring there is probabally enough boot to retro fit it into the escort.

That one on ebay looks good, were the uk console's different? but there again I suppose the hole would be about the same size.

Comes with cable tie, could use something else that may look better. I might try to tuck it into boot to hide. Weir quote: Originally posted by teeg
