My shift boot don't seem to be mounted all the way up and stay there. It always glides down exposing the ugly stick. I used double side tap and got it where I wanted but when I put it to first....I guess its not long enough. Will a replacement type r boot correct the problem?

 

no as far as i know thats how they are supposed to sit

 

on my friends rsx s they have a locking nut or something to hold it up. try looking for something simliar.

 

Small zip tie under the collar of the boot will fix your problem.

 

+1
or a thick rubber band wrapped around the shifter 2-3 times or so. Easier to remove.

 

i used electrical tape over a rubberband

 

Thick rubber O-ring, put it on too high and screw the shifter on and it will push down keeping the boot tight against the shifter.

 

 

Thanks guys.

 

i used the zip ties on mine, tried a rubber band a long time ago and it melted cause its so hot here...

 

I have a CTR boot and it stays up. It doesn't show the stick.

 

Some boots stay up and some start to sit low. I think that plastic ring around the top of the boot cracks. I used the old rubberband/electrical tape trick and it worked fine.
