best shift boot... ever.

While I'm waiting on Vette Essentials to return my email... [I got tired of hearing the chattering from not having a shift boot installed. This is made out of 1/8" closed cell foam known as "ensolite." It serves its purpose, and only looks slightly worse than no boot at all.

An old sweat sock or a condom (unused) would have worked too...

An 80s tube sock with matching stripe would've been killer.

Golly, I think that's a dandy innovation!! Let's not forget that time-honored quote: 'Necessity is the mother of penetration.'

Maybe your shifter mukluk should be added to the KaleAuto site.

Can't clean it. The finish comes off if I try. Needs to be replaced.

Hi Kale -

Could that fit under a leather boot?

That would look great and kill the billet shifter rattle -

Interesting.....

best regards -

Not in current form. but you could probably use the stuff under a boot if you wrapped it better.
