There have been a lot of threads asking how to install a shift boot or how to take apart the dash. In the following video I show how to install a shift boot in a Corolla with a auto transmission. If you have any questions feel free to ask!
thanks. mine came in today and i saw it on my way out to work. i put it on during my break, took like 3 minutes. thanks for the info for the ebay seller! super fast shipping!
as you said, there are 1000's, you can get any color stitching you want. His is blue to tie in with everything else, I would get white, gray or black to go with mine if I do end up doing this. His has the elastic bottom, but as far as which one he got, i'm unsure of that.
Do the plastics really come off that easy? Never taken mine off and just wanted to make sure. Also i noticed there are different styles for the boot anything specific i need to know?
make sure you get the same pitch count and thread size.... or a universal (but have seen a few of my friends not fit due to our incredibly small "shift pole")
I did mine a about a week ago. It looks so much better IMHO. Easy mod to make the car look cleaner. Do it up. Still have the stock knob though. lol gotta change that...
Random question not concerning the topic of the thread lol. But what kind of adhesive did you use for the "Corolla" emblem? Part of my CF Dash kit is coming off, and I need to find a interior friendly adhesive that wouldn't mess up the interior trim pieces if the whole CF trim comes off.
I'm assuming he debadged the "Corolla" emblem from his car and stuck it there in his interior. Btw, back to the subject, are there any TRD shift knobs that can be purchased and fit the auto trans?
I too thought it was m12, even got a nut from Home Depot and it fit, but upon looking at it, someone either threw a few M12's in the M8 box, I grabbed the wrong size or something, but Auto is M8x1.25
There is a guy on cardomain who used the oem shift knob. Trdmenace is the username. I was just gonna leave only the shift ball b.c. it reminded me of an is300 but the boot makes it look real clean.
+1. I'm loving the red stitching. :chug: I also ordered the VW Jetta shift boot in red stitching, but I'm currently waiting for it to come in (ordered it last week Wednesday). Did you have to zip-tie the top of the shift boot to hold it to any dust seal for the shift knob to connect?
