Honda Fit Rubber Shift Boot on R53 Mini Cooper

Under $40 option:

- Honda Fit Shift boot from 05-07 model ($30-ish from any Honda Parts Dealer)

- 1/4" thick sheet of neoprene rubber gasket material. ($5-ish)

Totally easy. No glue. Just a 1/4" thick rubber sheet that I cut to size, and then the last ring on the Honda Fit shift boot is tucked into the inner hole I cut in the rubber ring. Tolerances are tight and no unwanted movement in the setup.




07 Honda Fit Shift boot Installed
