Custom Alcantara, Forged Carbon Fiber, Carbon Fiber, Nappa Leather

Every boot is made-to-order using premium materials (Alcantara, forged carbon overlay, traditional carbon fiber, or full-grain Nappa leather). Stitching options include OEM-style single stitch or tri-color. Built on OEM dimensions to clip into the factory shift panel for a clean, OEM+ look. This is a direct swap for the original boot/panel with factory-correct fitment.

Installation tools needed

Plastic trim removal tool (to release the shift panel frame)
Small flat screwdriver wrapped in tape (optional for stubborn clips)
Microfiber towel and isopropyl alcohol (wipe the panel before re-install)
T20 Torx driver (only if your console trim has retaining screws; many do not)

OEM+ parts, Direct swap of OEM parts

This product is built on OEM geometry. If you’re replacing the boot only, it clips into the original 51 16 7 155 643/646 panel. If you’re refreshing the panel as well, the complete assembly drops into the factory console and aligns with the selector trim—no coding, no cutting.
