Any e28 owners here?

[El Presidente]

I need a new shift boot and I found one that is cheap and the color I want, but its for an e28. I emailed the seller but got no responce. Can any of you that have one measure the perimeter of the shift boot?

Thanks.

Got one in my hands here from an 82 528e.
Measurements are with the plastic support/snap fastener installed.

Length: 6 inches or 15.3 CM
Width: 4.25 inches/11 CM at wider end
Width: 4 inches/ 10 CM at narrower end
Circumference: 16.5 inches/42 CM at recess area that goes in console.
Circumference: 18 inches/46 CM at boot where it sits on console.
Height: 5.5 inches/14 CM from console to thin area on shaft.

This one's not leather, vinyl or leatherette.

You could a real leather one made at local interior shop if you can take your old one to them.

Thanks!

I'd have a real one made but it would cost more than the one I'm looking at. If this won't fit (need to check the measurments) then I'll get one from bmwfx.com
