It was such a nice day out, I wanted to stay outside with the camera and not come into the workshop for any of the shots.

Shipped yesterday via FedEx I apologize for the inconvenience of not using UPS but we encountered quite a hiccup with them yesterday afternoon. Please let me know if you have not received our shipping notification. Thank you once again for your support!

Just received the boot, packaging was excellent and quality as expected is great.

Overall Quality: 10
Stitch Integrity: 9
Packaging: 9
Value: 9


The install was about as easy as you can imagine if you don't do something stupid as below:

Just confirmed proper fitment with our adjusted version yesterday with one of our friends. The AT required moderate adjustment as our materials do not have the stretch or give of the factory vinyl. We were experiencing problems when the driver went from automatic mode to sport mode.

I will be sure to send photos to you as soon as possible as well make an announcement when we are ready to go!

Thumbs up

Interesting how installing the shift boot makes the handbrake look so bad. Off to buy the handbrake boot now.

Thanks!

Mine does not seem to fit at all...
