Who was it that had that leather e-brake boot in a Fox?

[glowstang93]

I am blaming everyone one of you for making me buy an e-brake boot.





THANK YOU!!!!



I went out to look at mine and that stupid rubber strip was coming undone again. Heck with Christmas, My Birthday is in 17 days.
Ordered it today, should ship Tuesday night from Poland My first international purchase, woo hoo.

I've got the same pieces in my interior. Had them for a year or two...I forget. Great quality and awesome shipping. Seemed like it took no time at all.

oh snap......I am ordering one of these

 

[glowstang93]

I bet "caseywan" the starter of this thread works for redlinetuning and this was all just a ploy to sell more boots


Oh well, even if it was, thanks

I got the ebrake boot today. Here is the pic. The instructions say to apply industrial velcro to the boot and the console. I'm a little concerned that the velcro won't stick to the boot. Anyone have an answer?

If you get the right kinda velcro, it'll stick to anything. I picked some up at Lowe's, and I have it stuck under my hood to hold my show mirrors. Regular velcro wouldn't even hold itself onto the paint

+1 - I use it to hold my transmission in place - makes clutch changes much easier.

Thanks Monsoon and Tuned ..

I took the boot to the upholsterer downtown and he sewed th industrial velcro on that I got at Wal-Mart. Now I know why they don't include it, it was $5.69 for the 5/ x 2". I didn't need near that much, but I guess I'll have it for the next project I got it all done, it looks much nicer than the old rubber crap. Its not one of those upgrades that most will notice unless they know our cars. Here are some pics of the installation.

It was 9 days from when I ordered it on a Sunday when I received the boot. Now if someone would just design a new console top that actually has a cup holder

I'm glad that you like the E-brake boots, as I initally requested that RedLine manufacture the boots, and worked with them to get the dimesions correct.

I also was the one that suggested to using velcro as it seemed the most universial attachment method and have yet to have a problem with it coming undone, although my production boot did not include the velcro, it probably would be sensable if the added it to the boots.

I just don't like the holdster, but I do have one that goes in the ashtray I use sometimes. I also put one of those nonstick pads they cell for keeping cell phones, pda's, etc on the dash on the console as kinda of a coaster if i do have a sweaty beverage there.

Thank You Sir for requesting the boot from redline. It is a great mod. And Thanks to :SNSign: or I would have never knew about it.

Wish granted?

50 Resto, Mustangs Unlimited, etc. sell those if that's what you want.

 

[glowstang93]

I have never seen a holdster installled. Anyone have a picture of one installed? I might change my mind.

 

[Shakerhood]

I wish Redline accepted Money Orders as I would like to order a Handbrake Boot for my Car.

 

[cardudeusa]

That thing is sweet, just ordered mine!!! Now to order a billet handle to go with it.

 

[nmk_61802]

I have a holdster installed, I will see if I can get a pic or two. My car is covered and stored for winter, but I should be able to snap a picture this weekend.

I thought that my photos on Redline's site might show it, but I had the console flipped up to display the boot.

I like the Holdster, but it does get in the way for shifting.

Also if you need titanium, CJ Pony Parts carries it as a stock color.

this will only work if you are using a 20oz bottle, a simple pinch in between the e-break and the console works great.! lol redneck cup holder but when i drive my speed my hands are full so thats the best thing for me!

I just finished installing one of these and the matching shift boot. Velcro does hold everything together somehow. I found heavy duty 3M "velcro" and followed the online instructions. So far, so good!

 

[glowstang93]

Ashame we weren't closer. I have like 4 feet of that velcro left now
