An addendum result of this mod: the shifter boot is raised almost 2" at its
top, but the bottom still needs to tuck under the carpet. This stretches the
accordian-like flex feature of the boot to its max, stressing the attachment
under the carpet. Mine comes out at the front periodically because of this.
I just tuck it back in. A little like the floppy armrests. I tightened all
of them 7/02 and recently had to redo the drivers left one (it gets the most
use/change). Although blue lock tite is good, these still seem to need
maint. This time I put a touch of Mobil 1 syn in the joint and that really
made a big difference in how smooth it works. Not enuf to create grease,
just a dab.
