calling all 2nd gen 5speed owners!!!

okay so my 08 base tacoma has a problem...the damn shit boot constantly falls in the console! i have the shit ass wanabe bench seat with the piss poor console and this shift boot is really grindin my gears im about to drill a hole and ziptie the bitch in! does anyone else have this problem?

 

Is the metal wire that runs around the base of the boot snapped into place?
If not that could explain your trouble. Just my .02

 

its either that or the little clips that hold it in...the wire isnt bent or broken and ive tried gently stretching it out to kinda put more pressure on the clips and a week or two later i look down and there it is all screwed lol

 

Mine usually pops out of place when cleaning the boot with a wet cloth.

 

aside from not havin four spinnin wheels..or should i say two spinnin wheels its the one thing i HATE about my taco i mean really toyota? wtf i think im really gonna ziptie this thing lol

 

I do not have that problem. Here's a way to fix it and not have it visable:
Remove the tray and shift knob. Make some small metal clips out of electrical conduit and use plastic epoxy to hold them on.
Unless you're still in warranty, then take it in.

 

hmmm i may try that...i like ur style
