This is a combination of the White Madness Garage Shifter with a stock manual boot.
Still pretty new here, but obsessed with simple mods... (move this if need be).
I'm not sure how many are interested in this, but as someone who drives with a hand on the gear select, the stock shifter is pretty uncomfortable and the P thru S is an eye sore (IMO). Looking for a solution, I came across the White Madness Garage youtube video of their automatic shifter replacement. Couldn't find much on it here about the company (I'm sure i just missed it), but for the price, I was willing to risk it.... Their video mixed with the CJPony Alcantara Automatic Shift Boot videos.. This idea seemed like a good combination.
video links below:
start to finish 15min or so.

Factory Boot:
OEM GR3Z7277DA
automatic boot trim mounts the same as the manual trim piece..
Just followed CJ pony's videos on disassembly, popping the factory collar off.
The only part "missing / needed was something to space from the inside. I ziptied the boot the the new shaft at the base (not pictured), and used the original collar to fit between the neck and bolt holes. This filled the diameter of the boot once turned right side out ... (an o ring would have done the same).
And finally something comfortable, thats looks great!!!
No... not trying to fake being a manual, just wanted to clean up the console a bit... You will not find mine sitting in neutral with the E brake up ... (although I use the ebrake with all my automatics).
Let me know if you have any questions.
