Sorry for the duplication (I started this thread over in the FX forum), but I wasn't getting many hits/responses so I thought I'd try posting in the G35 area since you guys seem to be a lot more "adventurous" in your mods. The question below pertains to all the automatic shifters, G35 or FX. -Thx
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
I have an 05 FX35, and it has the standard automatic shifter that's found in the FX, G35 coupe/sedan, etc. It's basically a stick shifter with no shift boot.

In the redesign(s) for 06, most if not all of the Infiniti automatic models now come with a leather shift boot around the automatic shifter. Does anyone know if one of these shift boots can be retrofit over the old shifter? I love the rest of the car, but IMO the shift-booted automatic looks much nicer.

Thoughts? Suggestions?

i dunno about fitting the 06 AT shift boot, but i know that i saw back in 04 people who fit an MT shift boot on their AT cars. I know it can be done... HOW.. i dont know. I just bought a 6spd so i didnt have to worry

 

I couldn't find any thread on this forum that refers to retrofitting the 6MT boot to a 5AT shifter, but I'm sure somebody out there's done it or at least seen it. Anybody else out there got info?
