    My (attempt) at an A4 shift boot

    Was mostly cause my exhaust resonates so dang much, it rattled the plastic slide mechanism to the point where I want to take a sledge hammer to it :mad:

    Let me know if you think it looks like total *** or not...

      Problem is there's too much material needed to travel from Park to First to fit into such a small hole.

      I basically just glued it up in there, it came off a Audi A4, stick model.

      It needs some work, but I think I'm going in the right direction.

      It's either go crazy cause of resonation with exhaust through the plastic slide, stare down into a hole looking at the guts of the shifter, or this.

      Yeah, I know it looks like poo. Oh well.
