So folks don't have to search -- you can get it from Bob at Fichtner Chevrolet: 1-800-234-5284 or email him at parts@fichtnerchevrolet.com. I'll let you know when my new boots show up and how they fit. Trust me, you'll want to replace that ugly vinyl boot when you get the new shifter. Nice meeting you yesterday... good times

I can do it in less than an hour. Fairly easy job, just the deamon pin in the C5 shifter is a pain. You get the shifter, the **** and the screw that holds the **** in place.

I agree, about an hour. I used the screwdriver method of removing the key (two screwdrivers one on the left side, and one on the right side), and the key came right out (couldn't get a good grip with the Vise Grips).
Also, remember to pull the pin at the front of the shifter. That releases the shifter so you can position it on the shaft.
Also, as someone else stated, make sure that you have the Torx #40 socket in hand before you start.
