Leather handbrake boot on an NA
Has anyone put a leather handbrake boot onto an NA? Could you please show me some pictures so I know what it looks like. Thanks a bunch.

I have one of the Benny's boots on mine - will try to get a photo later (or drop by Mania next week for a first hand look).
They slip over the top of the hard plastic case, so they're not soft like around the shifter. They look pretty good to me (and I bought mine looong before I worked at Mania, so no bias there).

My boots have been designed to fit either with the hard plastic in place, or without it.
It really doesn't matter as it will fit both ways.
They are made from soft garment leather with some foam glued on the right places so it fits nice without bagging, and feels just wonderful.
I stroke mine all the time.
My boots also come with instructions, although when you've put it on, you wonder if they are really required.

Just been posted recently. Put on over the top of the plastic but didn't need to. Just looked fuller.
