Worn shift boots and bushings pictures + stereo install

[— Agent☣Orange —]

Just a quickie thread about worn boots/bushings and a stereo install for a fellow Gearhead's NA.


After removing the plastics for the stereo install, I spotted a slight problem with the shifter boots


Removing the lower shifter bushing for replacement (what there was of it)


Removing the middle shifter bushing (what there was of it)


Removing the old upper boot (what there was of it that hadn't melted)


Got into some stereo wiring


and stereo installin'


Finally wrapping things up

This was one of the first things I did to my NA when I first bought it two years ago.
Stereo/boot/bushings. Was a quick $80 maintenance all together that was so worth it.

Total night-and-day difference. I think he was happier about the new-car shifting than the stereo that he came over for in the first place.

He needs a RoadsterTech bottom blanking plate...
Just sayin

And your window guides I told him about. His old ones crank hard! Hopefully, he'll be up for a Tampa meet and I can introduce you two.

Let me know when you come up so that I can make sure to be there.
