Default New Shifter Boot for Automatic?

I have been looking at my crappy looking stock shifter boot in my 05 vert for almost one year now and I can't stand the look or feel of this cheap boot. I would love to have a good quality, real leather one but I am unsure whether the good ones will work on an automatic. Has anyone with an automatic tranny replaced their shifter boot? Did you have to order one especially made for an automatic? Was it difficult to install? PS-I would also like to change e-brake boot also. It looks crummy too!!!

They have the Automatic shift boot at www.redlinegoods.com. I believe the price was $40.

Thanks for the link. They do not have installation details posted yet. Is it difficult to install? I am worried about working around the little plastic gear indicator.

Sorry, I don't have a C6...yet.

I wouldn't think it'd be hard to install it.

I have the best from Down South Vettes. You should wait a week though to contact Gerardo since he is getting married.







Totally love the true leather feel and look, much better than the cheap stock one.
