That looks great! How bad was the install? I ordered mine with standard stitching but seeing yours makes me wish I went with that stitch patternGreat write up, it was perfect. I went with the Faux Alcantara from Redline.

Need a grip tool or something to remove the Boomba knob to install the shift boot, any recommendations?

Thanks
Had to use this to remove the bolt holding the knob to the shifter assembly:
Powerbuilt 240094 8 Piece Zeon Metric Hex Bit Socket Set - with use for Damaged Fasteners, Standard, Rusted, Rounded Bolts, Size from 3mm to 10mm https://a.co/d/09Esa6U
Once everything was apart, the challenge was in refitting the components around the thick leather. I wound up cracking the lockout collar at the bottom, probably because I had too much of the leather wedged between the pieces. Didn't notice until it was all reinstalled in the Bronco.
Looks great if you don't inspect it too closely.

Installed my Redline custom shift boot today. It was a very tight fit but looks good. Only complaint is the tight fit made the stitching spread a little bit and the plastic shift collar cracked from the thickness of the leather. Also have a twistedshifterz custom white shift knob. Overall I am happy with it for the price.

That looks great! Perfect color combo. What color blue thread did you go with from their list...or did you have to order the special color matched option? I couldn't decide on the blue so I haven't ordered one yet.

That blue is their "grabber blue". It was the closest one they had to the stock stitching on Black Diamond.

I know it's silly but I really want a black rubber accordion one. Might have to take measurements and start scheming
I tried to copy the Ford Bronco concept rig for my Badlands. Did the Redline leather boot, but kinda wished I had gone with a smoother vinyl. Oh well, I'm still happy with it.
Where is this shift knob from? I've been wanting a new shift knob in cactus gray, but i can't find anywhere that will color match or offer the ford factory colors.I tried to copy the Ford Bronco concept rig for my Badlands.

Did you replace the lock out? I recommend the metal ones.wound up cracking the lockout collar at the bottom, probably because I had too much of the leather wedged between the pieces. Didn't notice until it was all reinstalled in the Bronco.

I haven't, but I have seen the posts about them. I might change it if I ever do any other upgrades, like the short throw or shift knob.
I assume you replaced yours - do you have any detailed feedback on it?
