I just got my TWM Short Shifter installed...but the boot looks ridiculous now. Are there any other boots available?

Email them and ask for a custom 94-99 celica short shifter boot, you can get it in any color with any stitching you like. Best company I ever dealt with. -------------------- |

I have a standard size boot with my SS. It's pushed down like a stock MR2 boot. It looks cool.

  It's a standard size, but I trimmed the bottom. -------------------- |

First I glued the ring/grommet in the top with gel super glue. Then I put the grommet retainer (thing that keeps the boot from sliding down from the shift knob) in the right place, and pulled the boot down to the trim plate the where it looked good, and trimmed it. I don't remember the exact amount.
