To change the shift boot on my 93 you have to remove the center console and it unscrews from underneath I bet yours is the same way.

first pop the button off of the stick, use a small screwdriver. then take out the ring holding the **** on. slide off ****. the only reason that you have to get that off is to fit the console over the top. if you dont it will scratch it up... ask me how i know

now you have to take off the panel, to get it off you have to take off the panel with the radio. and to get that one you have to loosen the one infront of the wheel.

then you can unbolt the boot and slide it off. it is easy and i did my '84 auto in about 15min.

good luck, if you need more details or anything just ask

This shows a manual trans, but it's pretty much the same procedure..Just be careful removing the snap ring inside the shift ****, they FLY !!
