I made one of those entirely unnecessary purchases a couple weeks back. I bought the Clark plaid DSG shifter and handbrake boot replacements from EuroVerse on Etsy (they may have gone by a different name in the past). Overall, I am pretty pleased with how they turned out, though they are clearly made from seat fabric where the foam backing was scraped away.
My question is, how does everyone go about attaching them or any other custom boots to the plastic trim pieces? The handbrake boot appears to be fused or stamped to the plastic, so I won't have much choice other than cutting it off the plastic frame. I haven't looked too closely into the shifter boot, but I assume it is similar. Would stapling it to the plastic be the best choice, and if so what size staples and stapler would you recommend? Thanks in advance!
