I only needed the e-brake boot, but based on the size of the boot as shown in your pictures, I don't think it will work on my application. I only have about 2" width around the e-brake base and your boot appears that it would be too wide.
Thanks,
Jeff

Its impossible that it would not work since this was designed around at Type 1 Bug and the ebrake and shifter rods are all the same.

OK, I'll bite.
I'm interested in the e-brake boot, but feel free to include information on your shifter boot too for the benefit of other potential purchases.

1. Can you post some pics of the underside of the boot, so I can see how the lower part is constructed/stitched? This is to help work out how the boot will be mounted.
2. Can you provide the dimensions of the base of the boot, where it mounts to the tunnel? Also to work out how to mount it and whether it can be fitted my 2" wide console.
3. Price for the shifter and e-brake boots if purchased separately?

Thanks,
Jeff

They are sold as a set and not separately.
The price is for a short time so after the holidays it will go up.

One page of discussion, two more of a transactional nature. Might have started out OK, but this is now an advertisment thread. Suggest moving it to Buyer and Seller Feedback, as it really isnt even buggy specific, this stuff could go on any VW.

I don't see the reason to go to Buyer/Seller feedback if no one has made a purchase to date. We are simply going back and forth with dialogue discussion on the topic.

Sure the item can fit a Bug, thing, Karmann Ghia, Notchback, fastback, but not buses with the exception of perhaps the shift boot.

I'm really interested in buying some of these. However, I only need the e brake boot, not the shifter boot.

Anyone interested in the shifter boot as part of a 'joint' order so to speak?

We sold the last 2 Ebrake boots and will no longer be making them...

There wasn't much of a demand for them so we are not going to make them any longer...

Thank you to those that bought them from us..

We will be coming with other innovative products so go to our site

or right here in Classifieds
