i got more in my cupholder than i do in my bank account!!! gotta leave it there for safe keeping, remind me to throw the change into the glovebox or my pocket for the meet in the spring

plastic shift knobs suck

werd, that was a downgrade if u ask me.......but u didn't!

 

Leather FTW.

 

My dad's 38k Envoy didn't even have a leather one...and it has leather seats!

Isn't it the same as that one? Just leather wrapped?

[Psych0matt]

i always wanted a leather boot for my shifter in the cutlass..

 

anyone have any ideas?

 

you saw mine. i just grabbed one from a post gen. slid it up over the bottom part of the shifter, and secured it under the panel (mostly) couldnt be any easier

[fastbird232]

a post gen.

 

That's right! Fuck your post-gen!

Be like the ones in a 2nd Gen GP? Yes. They 'tis leather wrapped.

[fastbird232]

Yup. Slap right onto your stock shift lever. Just make sure you get good leverage by putting your face directly over the knob as you attempt to remove it.

The stock shifter in my 95 was a leather wrapped cobrahead.

 

I put in the old (leather wrapped) t-shifter from my 88 GP... it's lower I like it better for my car.

[Psych0matt]

I have a leather cobrahead from the same car I grabbed the boot from. i should sell it here as soon as i get the truck up here

[Cam'ron]

anyone have acobrahead they might be interested in selling

[Psych0matt]

if not one else does, let me know, ill grab it this weekend when ill be close

[Cam'ron]

sure just let me know how much... keep in mind i just bought one for 15+ shipping i think... either way 25 came out of my bank account for it... dont be too hard on me

[fastbird232]

Here's the GTP's old knob in my Grand Am:

 

 

Only problem is the leather boot doesn't fit over the bottom of the cobrahead. It's not too noticeable, though. Who cares about that, when the simple addition of a former LQ1-shifter just netted me an extra 50 hp?

[Cam'ron]

i fixed that problem with the plastic one with a knife, i just cut a groove at the bottom of the knob and was able to pull the boot up over the edge so that it sits in the groove... guess i would be SOL with a leather one

[pwmin]

fwiw, i have rubber floor mats out of an 88 K5 blazer in my gp and they cover most of the floor.

not the best pic, but:

 

and i dont know what it looked like b4 so i have no comment, but the interior looks much better!
