So the bezel holding the shifter boot down broke, not sure how. Came apart. So I pulled the whole thing off and used some aluminum pop rivets and a few washers under the pop rivets (to keep them from pulling through the plastic) to put it back together. I thought it looked pretty cool, until I realized I had put the boot in back wards
Didn't feel like drilling all the rivets back out and starting over. Maybe another time, here's what it looks like. No way it's coming apart again (super glued together as well, the other reason I didn't feel like pulling it apart and starting over.

The only thing that I noticed when I unfortunatley did the same thing was, that with the boot being backwards, it puts pressure on the shifter and made mine pop out of gear at times, especially on rough roads or trails. I ended up having to redo the whole thing......But Good Luck!
