Default Rubber boot for manual conversion

Does anybody have a pic of the rubber boot that goes around the gear stick that screws to the floor of a manual EF?

sorry, i dont have a pic but i can tell you its CRUCIAL to have this little bit.

My friend did a manual conversion and chopped his to get it on and the car sounded like a truck while inside the cabin.


I didnt believe him that it made much difference but when he got a new one it just quietened the sound immensely!

There were two cars at Jolly's (when I got mine) that had them, a blue EA wagon there still had one. I have seen two cars with different ones though, an EA and an EB1 that extended up the shifter alot more, not sure what the go was there if they're apparently all the same, but they should interchange regardless.

Well, if I can't find one I'll have to do what EA2BA suggested and get one from another type of car and modify it to fit.

I removed my knob, gear boot and insulation for that photo, mine is factory spec apart from the shorter shifter. I removed it all to take a photo for a fellow forum member, and he has since replied with a thankyou, which is more than enough for me. There was no need for anymore posts after my last one. :

Wasn't that hard! I went into Centre Rd Wreckers and the first car I walked up to was a red EA wagon with a 5 speed! The plate and boot were still there, so I took them out, paid $5 for them, now I'm set!
