that's a stock shift boot from a 98 Honda Civic. It will fit, in a way. what I did was this:



I took the bottom plastic off the accord boot, pulled off the civic boot, then just layed it in place and forced the plastic up in there. once it was screwed down it's held very well, it's not moving anywhere.

the boot does reach to the top of the shifter, but I haven't put rubberbands or anything under it yet to keep it up.
