Sweet! Is that for a first or second generation 4runner? Do you have a pattern?
Thanks

Ditto on the pattern!

My '88 boot was torn up when I bought it. I ended up just covering the hole with some black vinyl looking material I found at Joanne's fabric when I tagged along with the wife once. I used the same stuff to recover the center console. It looks good.

With the dimensions of your original I could have the wife rip one off on the sewing machine.

I am going to have to contact you when I put the dual transfer case shifter in my truck. I really like the job she did.

I would seriously lay down some cash for one of those. I tired of my ugly rubber shift boots.
