I'm trying to keep the original look with the metal bar at the bottom of the EBrake and the holes for the shifter boot for ease in installation I have many colors and material options available, just let me know what your interested in More going out this week
I am impressed with the stitching on these. It looks to be real beefy. (I'm referring to the E-brake boot) How thick is the vinyl/leather? These two things are VERY important, especially at the bottom (hinge area) of the E-brake boot. I have never, ever pulled one off a Fiero that didnt have a tear in this area. This is why I never pull them (for my cars or to sell them to other Fiero guys) Will yours hold up in this area? If so, you will have a good, solid product to offer Russ! And lastly....what is the price??
Hey Russ I see you showed a pic of an auto shifter boot with the elastic style trim on the bottom, I wont ask if you can because it looks like you can do about anything, but do you make auto shifter boots to fit the plastic frame piece? Have you ever tried to recover like an auto T handle shift knob?
I don't know if you remember but I contacted you about the imitation suede material for the back wall of my car, I still haven't had the extra cash to order it but I will send you pics of how it turns out. It looks like you do absolutely fantastic work, I see all of your threads with new products and I am just amazed. Maybe someday when I have the cash I could take a trip out your way since you are a fellow Hoosier and save some money on shipping costs, because I plan to buy a trunk cover and a front cover and maybe some other things at some point.
Thanks for the kind words, don't have a pattern for that boot as yet. Just received some shifter knobs from Jonathon and they are on the to-do list along with several other projects.
Yes I do remember, and when your ready, I'm about 1/2 way between South Bend and Indy, just east of 31
Ok Russ, your breaking the bank (MY bank!) LOL. I was about to send out my arm rests for you to do, and then ran across this thread... looks like I will be adding a Auto Shifter boot, and e-brake boot to the order!
I showed my wife the new boots I got from Russ and she said, "I think he really cares." Now she wants my whole interior redone by Russ. She has seen other people's work and no one's compares. Thank you Russ. Your product got me permission to have my interior redone.

I have to say...to anyone that has not seen Russ' work in person and is ordering or thinking about ordering for the first time, you will be extremely happy with it!!! russ did my sunvisors and lower door panels in the grey suede to match the headliner. all i can say is wow. i was so impressed with the quality, i showed them to my mom, who is no stranger to a sewing machine...her response was the same as mine....WOW! his work is very high quality with a lot of attention to detail. Russ i believe when someone does a good job at a reasonalbe price people should know about it. so thanks again. Al btw...gald you are feeling better i didn't know you were sick.
Al - thanks for the kind words, much appreciated, I wasn't sure about doing the Suede door panels, but when I finished them, I think they looked fantastic, another great idea from a Forum member, thank you
