center console boot

[Radiant-Designer]

i need a center console boot for my shifter. The one with the SQUARE bottom (I already have a round one i bought from a Ratsun member who didnt read it correcly and sent my a round one) I have been told its the same for the B210, Z cars, etc.

I think the one in my 620 is just a generic one found at AZ or some shit

 

 

Dont have any pictures right now sorry. Only downside, its screwed into the metal by sheet metal looking screws... Works great, though.

You need to specify that you are looking for the leather boot COVER, or folks will keep sending you the round rubber boot. ALL 620 RUBBER BOOTS ARE ROUND. Console or no console, 1972-1979. There is no such thing as a factory square rubber boot for a 620. If your heart is set on a square rubber boot you need to go to Autozone and get a generic one. I've seen those. Hell, I have one in my '76 and it doesn't fit worth a damn but it covers the hole.

 

B210 ones are round too. Some Datsuns used an OVAL one, like the late 510.

I was thinking of geting a generic one and re-using the square braket thing that is under the plastic of the console. maybe just getting some leather and making my own...

yeah I did want the leather one.... not rubber... I didnt know if they originally had a rubber one like some mazdas and others or not.

The leather part isn't really square either. It's more like a skirt. Or a poncho, to be more accurate. They tie to the shifter about halfway up and then clamp the bottom to the console. Dunno if they are still available. All mine are rotten, moldy, etc. Nasty. Could get new ones made at an upholstery shop.

Wow, that is a translation fail. Ultimate strong Engrish.

 

However, I'm not so sure the 620 one is the same. I don't think it has that frame the B310 (Sunny) one has. I think the 620 one just clips to the console. I know the late 510 ones (A10) do, but they are trapezoidal.

If you look on the bottom of the console there is a squarish metal bracket that attaches to the underside with 4 screws located at each corner. The shift boot is sandwiched between the bracket and the console. If you've got the bracket on the bottom of your console, you could make a boot VERY easily... If you don't, you could probably figure something out that would work fairly easy.

go to the junk yard and find a manual honda they have nice leather boots that are easy to make work in a datto

I got one for a Hyundai. Had to fiddle a little with the mount on the console to get it to fit. Be Ratsun creative. :)
