Hi guys,
couple of teaser pics. This is the ebrake boot. The pics KIND OF show how nicely it fits around the mounting piece (which I'm sure is familiar), but it's hard to take those photos and hold the boot down with just two hands (actually my fiancee's, I was busy preparing Harry's package when she was taking these)... I have a good feeling about this, it looks like it's going to be awesome. I know the fit is DEAD-ON. Notice also the velcro around the top opening - will make for very nice adjustment if you get a aftermarket ebrake handle!
Also, this is Harry's armrest cover. Now wrapped in LEATHER! Sorry about the funky lighting in the pics, it's my home desk with artificial light at 10pm, I forgot to photo the armrest when I was doing the photos of the ebrake boot.
The armrest is a simple, DYI install - as you can see it's just wrapped around the lid and secured from the bottom with flat elastic. The cool thing is that it doesn't interfere at all with the latch mechanism (which is not easy to do with armrests on some cars, thank the Mustang team for making this armrest the way they did!).
The UPS man comes tomorrow to pick it up, Harry. I'm not going to risk your pieces with the postal system.
Thank you!

Redline... Please post pricing on these items and availability as soon as you can. It sounds like you've got a few potential customers.

I've just finished uploading our website. The prices and pics are there. However, I'd recommend giving it another week or so until XG14 shows the pics of the items installed in his car - we'll know then if the ebrake boot is perfect already or needs some tweaking still. The armrest I'm sure is good to go as it is now, we've never needed to change an armrest cover before.
Availability? Well, all items are made to order and shipped within 3 business days.
The prices for the 05's are slightly higher on the ebrake boot and armrest than the 94-04 before they need a lot more leather than respective items for older models.
Best regards,
Maciek

Cool! Thanks... now I guess I wait to see the pictures of the e-brake boot installed. And once I see that I get to decide whether your charcoal or black leathers comes closest to matching the stock boot and interior of my 'stang! Ahh... decisions... decisions...

Maciek - I like the Parking brake cover and the armrest cover - what's your price on those and I'm planning on keeping my stock shift boot and was wondering if the brake and armrest cover will be the same color as the stock shift boot? I have the dark charcoal leather interior (well front bucket seating surfaces at least!!)
thx

we are a pretty fair company, we don't care if a car is a $40+ brand-spaking new highlight of automotive technology (like the Stang) or a 10 year old Civic worth roughly what is costs you to get a decent coffee from the Starbucks in the hallway of your office building.
However, the 05 requires more material on the ebrake and the armrest than any car before, so the cost of these items is roughly $10 more than we charge usually.
The prices are:
Both boots & armrest cover (SAVE $30) $120
Both boots (SAVE $20) $70
Shift boot & armrest cover (SAVE $20) $80
Shift boot ONLY $40
Ebrake boot & armrest cover (SAVE $20) $90
Ebrake boot ONLY $50
Armrest cover ONLY $60

what would be the appropriate color leather for the boots to go along with the dark leather - - charcoal gray mustang interior? black or charcoal?

I'm hoping Harry's kit gets to him by the weekend so we can see some photos during the weekend already!

WHoa - cool!
Just dicovered this thread today.... think you might have another customer here at east for ONE item - lemme check out your site and check the finances.
(right on the verge of buying new wheels and tires so I gotta watch the $$)

Maciek... great products and prices. How long before you have a shift boot for the auto tranny? And will that be the same price as the one for the manual? I will be ordering a shift boot AS SOON as you have the design set in stone and know it fits.
Edit: And I will definitely be getting an e-brake boot then as well. That's a must.

I'd LOVE to make the automatic shift boot available, I need somebody to help me out though. If I can see a picture of the automatic center console, I'd know how to make the boot... Anybody?
Also, still looking forward to somebody posting a pic of the charcoal interiors!
Thanks much,
Maciek

Maciek... here is a pic of the auto shifter. The shifter arm is boxy, and rectangular. And it doesn't appear that you can take the handle off to slip a boot on, so it may have to be made to be velcroed on.

Also the handle is very wide, those two grabs on the sides are also bulky... The slit with the velcro would have to be large, I'm not even sure if the lever is long enough to allow enough of a slit to allow for making past those grabs...
I'm sure it's removable somehow. Anybody?
