Sounds fine; it's a low-profile piece, so there's room for 'error'...

Yellow boot looks good. Are you needing a shifter knob to re-do? ONLY a custom re-work should go on top of the stick, IMO..............

I just told Dave [WVZR1] that I'd do a tally of leftovers from the auto conversion, and if he's not interested in the knob, and you are, it MAY be available. 'MAY' say with RESERVATION - made a similar offer error last week here...

The shift boot is actually a darker tan w burgundy stripes. It looks yellow because of the flash. What knob are you talking about? Pics?

I mis-read the post; thought you were looking for a knob to get a new cover put on...

This is mine leftover from the auto conversion:



Dave [WVZR1] has just asked for a list of what parts are left from the conversion; I don't know what parts he might be interested in just yet. Anyway here.......

Dawn dish soap.

I am going to try a nano sealant, as I do not have a black car do you want to volunteer your car? 8 fifty is the product that I am going to buy. Not cheap by any means. They have two claims to fame, first the product life from a single application is three years. Second you can use your normal waxing methods and products after the product is installed.
What do you use for wax? I think I am going to invest in a jar of Blackfire Black Ice.

sure my paint need help in some areas

I currently use Adams polishes, on the rare occasion I get the polish the car.. Lol

No surprise Dawn is what is used to clean up all the 'FOWLed" oil spill wildlife. Nothing works better

Carpet actually came in an ACC box and Willcox is working out the return. Hope to hear back soon.The tint is wrong and you couldn't say its because the footwell is bleached out from the sun.
I don't like the binder on the hatch floor carpet and the wheelhouse carpet is not cut for speakers.

The ACC will fade like a MF too!! I don't find their carpet to be very good at all.

Good to know. I dodged that bullet. Sent it back and Willcox refunded although they needed just a bit of prodding in the form of a phone call. I have all the carpet from one car so we know it will match throughout. Rather have OEM anyway. Beginning on removing
my carpet today so I will have a complete set and interior available. Overall it looks to be in good condition but we'll see once I pull it out.

Took advantage of some nice weather here today. I was able to remove the console frame, passenger seat and remainder of the carpeting. Loads of wires.
The 92 was the first year w ASR, so what would normally be a second rear hatch bin is full of hydraulics and electronics. The "door" to the bin is bolted shut and so the hatch carpet only has one flap and one hatch pull handle w lock. Well the 90 carpet is setup for 2 bin doors, pull handles and locks. Got a bin door from a 91 along w a lock to fill the hole. Now I should be able to install the pull handle onto the hatch carpet.
A few shots of the car devoid of carpeting and seats and just starting to install riser and hatch side carpeting.

Haven't pulled the seat belts yet there Dominic; trying to get the tune right just now here.

Send the Black ones if you can; I'll get the Cognacs out ASAP...

Sccrem has the partner to the one I have and he's sending it off. You still need black belts?
