![]() You set it up so the LONG set screws are at 12 o'clock and 3 o'clock when looking straight down the shift rod. Put threaded lower tapered piece on first Once you decide on your boot setup, put the boot back over the shift rod, then put the panel loosely back in place This is a very tight fit, which is good, but you need to get it down just far enough, otherwise you'll have to use a gear puller to get the collar back up (don't ask me how I know ) The black plastic sleeve goes inside the collar w/ the 2 set screws. This setup allows the boot to be in the best place without interfering w/ shifting. After some trial & error I decided to remove the OEM collar and pull the boot up to the straight section of the shift ****. Just set it on its' side and pull the boot inside-out so you can cut the zip tie that holds the collar, need a sharp exacto blade to cut it clean, be careful as you don't want to cut the bootĪfter you cut the zip tie you can decide what you want to do w/ the mating of the boot. ![]() Once in neutral you can then get the cover up and over the shifter, just be careful not to pull on the wiring. You then need to move the shifter into neutral, just push the white release rod to get out of park. Once you get the back of the panel lifted you then need to pull down on the front (above the ashtray). You then just pry up in each rear corner to release the pawls. If all you have is a small screwdriver try to protect the panels by using a couple thin credit cards on the outside of the screwdriver head. Once you get the **** off you need to remove the shift console cover, this is simple but you MUST use a plastic pry tool of some sort, I have a variety of these cheap Harbor Freight body panel tools that I use. Just pull the 2 outward prongs out and slide the clip back, then just pull up on the **** to remove, then replace that clip back on the **** since it's very small (and probably costly to replace). To remove the OEM ****, just hold the collar on both sides and firmly press down, the collar will snap off and you can slide the boot down to expose the "U" clip. ![]() If anyone can verify if you can indeed just buy the boot, let us know. Keep in mind, if you cut the OEM boot I'm not sure you can buy just the boot from Infiniti/Nissan, the whole shift column/panel is quite expensive, just want to give a heads up. This is my version of the install, there are a few ways to handle the mating of the shift boot. The shift **** comes well packaged and is machined to a high quality fit & finish. First off, want to say thanks to Charles B2 Autodesigns for getting us a nice price on this high quality part.
