Ok guys so I did a little bit of trial and error on my own. So I found a guy getting rid of a 2010 Z 6spd shift boot and surround. At first I thought I could just transfer one for the other, but then I reallized there were subtle differences. Also once you tear everything down you will find that there are clearance issues with the 6spd surround. It seems the opening on the 6 speed is slightly smaller than the 7AT, and will not fit over even once you take the indicator plate off and everything. So what I found was that I needed to remove the boot from the surround. Once I did this I just placed the boot over the indicator, lined it up and popped the original surround in place. The surround will pretty much keep the boot in place. Just thought some people might like this idea, if they wanted to stick with OEM parts. Heres are a couple pics, if anyone wants anymore of the teardown I can post those as well. Im getting a MOMO knob here in a couple of days too, so I'll post pics when I do that if someone wants
