If you put it in a bench vice you can break the rubber in the upper part of the shift with some vice grips. Slide the boot on an re-assemble with some sikaflex. ;) Report

April 27, 201214 yr comment_600209 That's going to smell oily and fuely as shieeeeeete in that car with that much air gap, plus it'll be loud as hell with a hole that large Hope you plan to plate it up.. The factory one would have been more ideal though as it'd be air tight Report
