Guys, I need some closure on which boot fits which application, can you help me clarify?
I can't figure this out with all the descriptions we're getting in the comments re: your car type, trim level, engine, etc. - all these abbreviations are hard to figure out. Can somebody please post a detailed outline which models the boot we've made (check the original post) will fit?
Are there 5-spd and 6-spd versions of the car (that's the only reason there could be differences between the two versions as far as I know). Somebody pointed out that on some cars the boot is more flat (doesn't go up right on the bottom like the one in our pics) - but I'm inclined to think this is just because of the way it's formed (leather has some stiffness to it so it holds the shape a bit).
Thank you in advance for any help in getting me to understand the differences.

If they are all 5-spd I'm pretty sure it has to be the same boot for all applications, but I'd hate to deliver wrong products to some of you so if your boot looks different than the one in our pics, please tell us how.
Also - I don't know why you can't see the pics. It must be some security thing on your computer I guess?

the SS/SC 05-07 AND the SS/TC 08-10 have the boot that is more puffy like the one you already made and have pictures of. The 06-10 Sport Models or SS/NA (naturally aspirated) have a boot that is more form fitted.
this is the 05-07 and 08-10 SS/TC and SS/SC shift boot (LNF LSJ 2.0)http://www.modernperformance.com/gm/...t_shifter3.jpg
this is the 05-10 sport or SS/NA (non turbo and non supercharged 2.4)

LNF is the 2.0L Turbocharged engine code. So that would be an SS/TC.
Haha yeah, this must definitely be confusing if people are throwing all these terms at you. As far as I knew all the shifters were the same, although the material of the boot may have changed. The only differences I was aware of was auto vs manual trans. Maybe I'm misinformed here though.

SC being SuperCharged and TC being TurboCharged? And what's LNF?

not all have reverse lock out, but it shouldnt affect the way the boot is made at all! also the 2.2 LS/LT guys have the "less puffy" boot. i really dont see the difference, because i can tuck mine down too and make it look like it has less material. I honestly wouldnt be too concerned over it.
2.4 Boot
another look at a 2.4 boot more slim toward the shaft of the shiter

Guys I have a thought about the designs.
My guess before was that the reverse lockout gearboxes come with the elasticated collar, and the non-reverse lockout come without it, but I believe somebody proved that this would be wrong.
Now, I think the differentiator that would be very easy to follow for us would be whether or not your STOCK BOOT HAS AN ELASTICATED COLLAR.
The puffy boot has elastic in the collar, so does ours.
But all the pics of the non-puffy boot I've seen suggest that there is no elastic in the collar.
Thoughts, anyone?
