Default MGW flat stick

Is there a special shifter boot that fits around the MGW flat stick shifter? The boot I have does not fit around the base like the attached picture. Name:  photo695.jpg

Disregard. Just realized I'm missing the boot around the flat stick.

Glad you found what was missing. The shifter looks great in your car.

Curious how you all get the boot to stay on the plastic piece that MGW provides. The factory ring was stapled to my boot…

Don't know if it is right but I removed the plastic ring, flipped the narrow part of the boot inside out and used the provided ring supplied by MGW and zip tied it in place and then slid it over the shifter.
