The **** is tightly secured, but will unscrew with a little effort. You will have a hard time screwing it up.

I followed the website you went to for the shift boot and it is a motorcycle web page. I don't see anything for scion xb. Needing a new shift boot to go along with a theme.

Sorry about that....it is lightningautocustoms.com.

Great service and a quick turnaround.

For the shift ****, I took Stingray Metallic touchup paint and had it swirled with metallic black. The picture does it no justice it is really a piece of art.

The auto is a specific size. I am not sure what it is though. Maybe someone can chime in with the correct size.

The manual shift **** is a 12mm thread size. The auto is 8mm. But, don't let that limit you. Many third party shift ***** (like most Momos, including my Combat EVO) come with adapters/spacers to work with various shaft diameters.
