hey everyone. im forced to drive around in an auto tranny civic but i love the look that the manual cars have mainly for the shiftboot. i was wondering if i could put this:

into the shifter area. can you just take it apart and put that boot in? i notice there are two clips where it may hold. thanks!

 

yea you can, you can't use that metal frame though.

 

yea i have seen it done to auto cars.. my boy fooled me till i saw the auto cluster

 

hmm any idea how this can be done?
i dont know where to start

 

-pull out black rubber shifter trim
-wedge boot (sans metal bracket) in the space between plastic and shifter plate
-replace rubber trim
-amaze your friends.

 

my coupe back when it was auto had the manual look set up and everybody called me a ricer

sounds pretty easy but i have a few questions
im not exactlly sure what the wedgeboot is.
also is there anything that i should be careful with incase it breakslike the plastic part cracking

hmm so hes being sarcastic.?.

 

not a wedgeboot.....wedge THE shiftboot. don't worry about breaking anything, there's 1 piece of rubber.

i also forgot the part where you have to remove/replace the auto shift ****, but it's one screw, on the driver's side of the ****.

 

you have to replace the **** also? dang any good auto shift ***** out that fit the boot?
also any directions? im KINDA Lost

 

i'm not sure what you're looking for here. there's seriously like 5 steps to achieve the funk fakin'

again:
-remove shift ****
-remove rubber trim between the shifter and plastic
-wedge the shift boot in the space between the shifter and plastic
-put the rubber thing back in
-put the shift **** back on

done.

 

My friend has a shift boot in his sportshift Prelude, it looks great (aftermarket **** too, of course).

 

 

i thought about doin that with my beater lol

 

i thought about doin that....then i swapped to a 5 speed

 

my uncle has a BMW and it has a shiftboot like that..its pretty cool

Here's how I've seen it done before. These are all from a 6th Gen Accord, but you'll get the idea.

 

hmm.. i got a pic somewhere..
