Superformance side mount handbrake boot?

Anyone sourced one that works? Mine is torn.
Was thinking maybe a repo for an AH3000 or some such old english car with a similar setup? Or just a generic leather boot that works?
Thanks

Your best bet would be to take it to any local upholstery shop. Chances are they have a swatch of similar material that will work and they will just use your original as a template. Easy project for them and even if it costs you $50-75 “cash on hand” you’re still ahead.

That was going to be my answer. Or get some leather and make one yourself.

As an alternative, Cobra Valley lists a shifter boot cover that's also compatible with some brake handles. https://performanceunlimited.com/cob...shiftboot.html

This. The boot is just leather sewn up.
