There's a better picture.
Ooh, now that makes me wish I had a manual.. Thats sweet. Nice touch with the blue boot too.
Thanks for adding to the data pile. The more, the merrier.
I've had a question on how to remove the shift boot...

There is a ring holding the bottom of the boot. Squeeze the boot to change the shape and clear it of the retainers.

And you can see one of the retainers in the console here
New shifter installed today. Removed old knob with a pair of channel lock pliers with ease. Cut off the knurled section to lower the shifter a bit and thread it to M10x1.25. Took about 25 mins to thread the shaft to a depth of 1.5"
