Here are some pictures to show the difference in colour to the stock leather. This boot sits tighter becasue I emoved the plastic shroud on the handle.

Here are some boots I made recently.

One is with thread to match the GT500 stitching, the other is with a matching shift boot.

Hey fellas! Don't forget if you want to mod your existing leather wrapped wheel instead of buying a new one, you can change the thread to match the boots Jim makes... Just have a look at the thread I created...

Watchdevil - I am considering doing that to my Bullitt wheel and going with white stitching - don't know yet.

As for the installation of the shifter boot - I have an automatic, so I had to make the pattern from a boot that a member sent to me. You will have to carefully take off the old boot, and then put this one on exactly the way the old one came off.

Cheers

The leather e-brake handle is only available as a complete e-brake assembly from Ford. However, it would be so easy to cover the existing one and stitch it on. There are even some that you can buy already made that will slip right over the existing one. However, I bet Jim could be up to the challenge to create something as well.

I have fallen in love with my aluminum billet ebrake handle. I love the weight and feel! I just wish the rest of the aluminum trim in my car was that nice!

Has anyone done both shift an ebrake with yellow stitching? I think it will look great with the new Katzkin interior.
