Well from what I've gathered there are only two guy's out there that make these or supply them. I had originally gotten mine from Finishline and it didn't even make it over the t handle before it split. WAY TOO stiff. I ended up finding a guy on ebay that sells them. After he and I talked he told me the story of the boots come from either him or Finishline's guy. He also sells to Cobra Restorers so there's should be right. The new one is MUCH more flexible but still is a little tight. Mine would pop out of third from time to time. Now what I do is when I'm done driving I park it in third (in my garage) and that has seem to help loosen it up some. Nothing against Finishline's stuff, it's just a bad repop. The original boots came off a Falcon so any of those guy's should be able to help as well. If it's a little more expensive, it's the better one. Just call before you buy! Hope this helps, Matt
