Question Rennline shift **** question

Hey all--I'm digging the Rennline billet shift ****. Question is, how/where do you get the boot like they have in this picture? If I'm not mistaken, that's a 996 in the picture...do you just cut the OEM boot from the integrated **** and use that as the boot? Where did they get the billet bezel that's going around the boot?



Anyone have one of these?

Can't answer that portion of the question, but in the Miata we're converting to a specmiata for racing, it has an aluminum shift ****... That sucker takes an aweful long time to warm up in cooler weather... Hurts your hand when it's below freezing...You're in Florida, so it may not be an issue, but it's something to consider...

Umm, it also gets HOT if it sits in the sun. My 10AE Miata has an aluminum handle on it - it can get hot just like it can get cold....

I had a Momo shift **** on a former VW similar to the one pictures and I concur that on cold days (cold for CA) it stayed cold for quite a while and when it was hot I had to shift quickly using fingertips only.
