Sweet, thanks. I'm going to see if my local dealer has any at all / has a decent price.

Do you happen to know what size screw that is? My grandfather has a warehouse full of machine supplies, so I'm sure he'd have the right screw, lol.

 The automatic comes with two but I would order some any old ways because you just never know.  For that price it should not even be an issue.  



 
Trust me…


Oh, I hacked off the plastic ring on top of the OEM boot so I could fit the boot snugly to the OEM shift knob; Just FYI.

Phew, I finally got this project done. I had to trim some of the boot base at the bottom where 1st gear was, because the shifter wouldn't stay. As far as securing the top of the boot, I don't think I did it right, lol. I used a zip tie, but I couldn't pull up the boot far enough to where it'd hide the two screws. I only got it up enough to where it'd hide the bottom screw. Either way, it's functional, and it looks pretty sweet.

You can see what I'm talking about in the second pic.

That's hardly noticeable dude. Good job.

Want to see the assortment of tools that I used for this project?



I'll let you use your imagination from there.... I definitely don't recommend doing it the way I did, lol.

Can you say, "Ghetto?"

Does anyone have a picture of Joe Danger's shift knob/boot?

i am so thinking about doing this...

I love to do this but retain the plastic around the shift knob. So basically, not a full shift boot, only the center would have it. With that knob, it'd be tough. I thought you wouldn't have to press anything which wouldn't have worked for me since I like pretending I have a manual and fake shifting =P

is the boot itself an oem part? if not where can i get one

[MyNameIsThien]

The boot is an OEM part. You can get them off any 7th Gen Accord with an MT.

Part Number # 83415-SDN-A91ZA

Or you can go with the Momo ones which are universal. They just wrap around the base of the shifter assymbly.

I know this thread is a little old, but finally got around to installing the boot. I was just wondering if anyone with the momo auto shift knob had any problems with the screws that hold the knob in place coming loose. I had a cheap shift knob that always came loose which was really a pita, which is why i would spend the money to buy the momo knob.
