T5 Shifter boot resolved #1

I am using a TRI-AX shift arm which has made finding a nice looking boot that fits very difficult. I like the Tri-Ax because it puts the shift knob low and back about were the stock one was but it leaves very little vertical room.

A friend offered to make one if I made the console cover plate. He covered the plate with leather, made the ring and covered it in leather and made the boot.

It turned out great!
