MGF gear & hand brake gaiter on eBay #1

I just saw this on eBay and thought other might also be interested: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/MG-MGF-GEAR-HANDBRAKE-GAITER-REAL-LEATHER-95-2000-/230432971198?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item35a6e019be

Both the gear and hand brake gaiters in my car are in poor condition and was planning to replace them with leather pieces. I just happen to take a look on eBay this morning and saw these for sale and they will ship to Canada 15 GBP, including shipping. I hope they turn out to be worth the money.

I bought these awhile ago and had no problem fitting them. The gear lever one is originally stapled to a plastic frame but I used a epoxy cement to secure it which works fine.

I received my new gaiters in the mail about a week after buying them and put them in a couple days later. They were very easy to fit and look great.

The biggest hassle was pulling the console to install the gear shift gaiter. The original clips for this gaiter were broken some time in the past and I had to epoxy the new gaiter to the console, just like the original was. Epoxy doesn't hold very well to the plastic that the console is made out of so it will be easy to remove if necessary.
