Man, forget my trip down south. I should travel north (and east) to have a beer with you and @Tcoat.

Um to visit us you have to go way south since we are just above California.


You can stay at my house.

Would still be a better drive than through northern Ontario going out Edmonton way.

37 hours, thats not too bad actually. Can probably get there in less than 3 days if I don't stop to sight see and only for bathroom breaks, food, few hours of sleep.

Ya the route they show is sort of wonky really. There are no roads through South Dakota?

I think coachworks and others sell shift boots that completely remove it, as unnecessary as that is on the Autos

It is needed as it controls the manual mode. Without it the paddles and/ moving the shifter over does nothing. Otherwise the manual boot would work fine just pulling that off. There is a write up on it in the thread on repining the +/- to the correct orientation. That's why I did it because I hated that it still read backwords and there was no simple fix for that without tacky looking stickers

I think you misunderstood what I said, I said it was unnecessary to have a shift boot that covers the entire thing.
