2000-2006 FORD FOCUS INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
1. Remove shift knob by turning counter clockwise.
2. Remove shift boot by carefully squeezing the base of the boot from the back side towards the front side. You may need to carefully slide a thin flathead screwdriver between the base of the boot and the console. Remove the ebrake boot by squeezing the sides together near the front side of the boot. The screwdriver will come in handy on this one too.
3. Pull boot up over itself so it looks like an upside down cone. Look for the zip
tie keeping the boot from sliding up and over the reverse lock out mechanism and cut
the zip tie with wire snips or similar plier tool. Now both boots should slide right
off.
4. Carefully remove the staples holding the boots to the plastic bases. You will need to reuse the plastic bases but not the staples.
5. Re-fit the new boots around the plastic bases. The leather will have slits that perfectly match up with the clips on the plastic bases and hold it in place.
6. Fit the boots with the plastic bases installed back into the proper places. Push the front side of the shift boot in first, and then the back side will snap in. Be careful that the plastic tabs are still keeping the leather in place. The ebrake boot slides over the handle just like it came off. Put the back side in first and gently squeeze the sides together in the front and push it in place. It should snap right into place.
7. Push the opening of the shift boot down around the reverse lock out mechanism. The elastic will give enough to go around it. Be sure to pull the ebrake boot down the handle enough that when you disengage the ebrake, there is still enough slack to not stretch the boot.
8. Re-install shift knob.
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.
