NISSAN, VOLKSWAGON items in 350z store on eBay!

I then had a local guy custom make a matching cover for the center console lid.
Can you tell me how you got the e-brake boot on? It fits so tight I can't even get it past the release button area.

This is about as far as I can get it...

Mine just covers the base part. Not the actual handle part

Mine does too, but i cant slide it down the handle far enough. Did yours slide down the handle real easy?

Did you have to take your e-brake apart to get yours on?

Thanks for the help. Mine is longer, but I figured it would still slip down far enough to leave 5-6 inches of the stock handle exposed, similar to yours. I contacted the seller to see if he can tell me how this is supposed to fit...

I got this item btw: Black Stitching Fits Nissan 370Z Z34 2009 2013 Leather Handbrake Gaiter Only | eBay

That's about as far as that style will go. This is the style I have:

Fits 2008 2014 Nissan 370Z Real Leather E Brake Shift Boot Gray Stitch | eBay

Top Gaiters sells it also, but listed for 350Z. They are the same.

From the picture, that style seems to be made to cover the entire e-brake.

Yup, and no matter how hard I try, I cant get it to go over the handle far enough to cover up the bottom (end) of the handle.

It's just too short... which made me think if it was in place correctly, it would leave about 3-4 inches of handle exposed. Not sure I'd like that look anyway, but never gonna find out either. lol.

I think you just need to get it circumcised.
