Do you need a smaller boot for short throw shifter?

Yes, a smaller boot is recommended for a short throw shifter. A short throw shifter reduces the throw distance of the gear lever, providing quicker and more precise gear changes. As a result, the standard shift boot may be too large and interfere with the shifter's movement. Using a smaller boot that fits snugly around the shifter mechanism ensures proper clearance and prevents snagging or obstruction during gear changes. This improves not only the functionality but also the overall aesthetics of the car's interior.
