03+ HONDA ACCORD INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
1. First Remove your shift knob by untwisting it. It may be a little tight but twist it a little harder and it will come off.
2. In order to access the shift boot, the top panel must be removed. This can be accomplished by opening the “not an ashtray cover” and the cigarette lighter cover. Place your fingers against the shifter trim and pull upwards.
3. There are a total of 6 clips that you must release. 2 at the front where the dash trim meets the “ashtray” and cigarette lighter cover. There are 2 on the left and right side of the trim. BE VERY CAREFUL when removing the trim or else you might snap it. You can make this process a bit easier by placing your fingers under the shiftboot and try pulling upwards through the hole covered by the shift boot.
4. After removing the shifter trim you will notice that the shift boot is secure to a white plastic piece that is screwed on to the trim. Remove the 4 screws and separate the shift boot from the trim.
5. The shift boot is attached to the white plastic piece using 8 staples. You must remove these staples.
6. The installation of the new shift boot is pretty much the reverse of all these steps. I took the time to re-staple the boot back to the white plastic piece however it is time consuming without the right tools. You can choose to just glue the shift book back on with some type of glue to make things easier. Then reinstall everything in the reverse order of removal.
CONGRATULATIONS - YOU HAVE SUCCESSFULLY INSTALLED YOUR NEW LEATHER BOOTS!
Useful tip
You have installed a product made out of genuine leather. As you know, to maintain a leather product in good condition, you should take care of it. We suggest occasionally (every 4-6 week for example) applying some leather conditioner/UV protector to keep your leather from drying up in the sun and cracking.
