Default Automatic Shift Boot?

I've been wondering this for forever. Is there anyway to change the automatic shift panel and make it look like a manual boot?

Also, the shift ***** are obviously different from the manual shift ***** so what size adapter would I need to buy to put a manual shift **** on?

Thanks (:

RedlineGoods.com makes one I think. I bought an armrest cover and M/T shift boot, the quality is great and so is the service. Not sure about the **** though.

Thanks you tCluvr. I would have bought a manual.... but I suffer from a neurological muscle wasting condition called Spinal Muscular Atrophy type 2 since birth. maybe you can read about it and get your education up. So therefor I can't lift my leg to use a clutch. Otherwise manuals aren't that great.. I had a 2006 GTI.. (before I bought this turtle of a car) and it was a DSG tip tronic transmission and in races I beat cars like the one I currently own now. (white tC2) I was APR stage 2 tuned plus many other mods. I blew the transmission and found a good deal on this scion for commuting to and from school. SOOO before you go hating on automatic cars... read up.

I'm sorry about your condition but I'm not hating on automatics. My tC is auto.

But what you're doing is being a poser...

No what I'm doing is making my car to my liking. LMFAO! but okay thanks for your input. I had a shift boot in my GTI that was stock. Does that also make my a poser? if you are going to be an idiot bring it somewhere else.

Why would you want to put a manual shift **** on if you weren't trying to pretend to have a manual? Poser...

Ive met a lot of guys who dont know how to drive manual and want to make their automatic cars look like manual. they even drive it like manual then end up messing up the transmission. Most of them who are to ashamed to admit they cant drive manual usually blame it on a medical condition.
OP I also own a 2007 GTI with the DSG transmission and its rare for me to use the paddle
shift or the tip tronic. We really dont know for sure if you really have a medical issue but if you do then good luck finding a nice looking shift book.

Killer, I didn't realize it was the new thing to lie or make up medical conditions. Certainly this isn't one I would make up as I already use a wheel chair, and will die early from the condition. Sorry men can't man up to their incompetence. But trust me I've tried to drive a manual. I can drive a manual. It's just by the time I shift into 5th gear my leg is too weak to push the clutch down anymore. Thanks for your help though... If you even gave me any.
