Hey whats a good way other than super glue to keep your shift boot from sliding down?

 

I don't know if super glue would be a great idea. Maybe try a zip-tie?

Mine has a collar at the top that keeps it from sliding down

 

Buy the bolt that keeps it up

 

/ Thread.

It's actually a little plastic grommet though.

 

its a bolt...
put the bolt in first before u put the shiftboot back on.

 

I have the Mugen shift **** is the bolt universal or is there a different one for each ****

 

no offense but is it really a big deal if ur shift boot slides down a lil bit?

 

Heres what I used to do. Its a good fix if your shift **** doesnt line up right too. Its not a pain in the *** either, and you dont have to worry about messing with a bolt when you want to take the boot off.

Get a roll of electrical tape, take off the shift boot and all that, screw your shift **** on as far as you can (or if your **** doesnt line up, screw it down as low as you can, then back it out to where you want it). Next, take the electrical tape and right below where the shift **** ends, put a few layers of tape around the shifter. Pop off the ****, throw on the boot, and screw on the **** and it should be all flush. If it slides over the tape easy, add some more layers.

 

its not a big deal i was just wondering thanks

 

Pull the boot down, wrap some elctrical tape around your shifter (just enough so you can pull the boot back up over the tape but enough so its a tight squeeze and will hold the boot up)...done.

 

throw a zip tie around the inside then flip the boot....problem solved, its held up and you cant even tell that its fastened. imo that it looks better to show a little of the shifter if your running a nice dual bend or similar. i have my boot pushed down to keep it out of the way when shifting and plush i get to show off my s2 dual bend.

 

i keep it gangster and yanked my girls black elastic from her hair....problem solved

 

I use electrical tape under the boot, works perfectly fine for me

 

Rubber band on the inside flap of shift boot.

 

double sided tape

 

wrap electrical tape below the shift **** just past the threads, you dont need very much. when you pull the boot up it will be snug and fit perfect

 

rubber grommit/rubber band works for me

 

I prefer the look of it up instead of sagging down personally.

 

**** ring

 

zip tie... werd

 

same here

 

Was trying to solve this today, been doing a lot of final cosmetic stuff on my DD/Project Civic. Today I was cleaning the center console trim and other various plastic things, and as I had my shift boot removed and cleaning it, I noticed the rubber ring on the top of the boot was cracked, so I flipped out the boot and zipped up the rubber ring. And then I realized I can do the same thing to the shift stick itself to hold the boot up. So I got one of my small metal hose clamps and secured it on the shift stick, moved up/down according to where I want the top of the boot to sit, and voila! The boot is nice and snug against the **** and my center console looks whole again.
