leather shift boot for auto trans? - Mazda 6 Forums : Mazda 6 / Mazda Atenza Forum

Does anyone know if it's possible to outfit the 6's auto stick with a leather boot so that it resembles a manual stick? I want to enclose the gated shifting panel and also get a nice aftermarket shift knob. Anyplace that sells kits specifically for this? I've searched the web but only found kits for Accords.

if you search you'll find some guys here did it
you simply need to bracket from a manual mazda6
as for the shifter, I highly suggest finding a screw in type as the one with allen keys get loose all the time
the pattern for our auto shifter screw is 8X1.25
So far I've only found the RAZO RA70 that would fit and doesn't look too ricey

Are you sure? Everywhere else I've read it's 10x1.25.
