VW Manual Shifter Boot (German Anthracite Grey) – 111-711-115AGY The 111-711-115AGY is the premium German-manufactured shifter boot produced in the classic Anthracite Grey finish. While black is the standard for most restorations, this grey version is the factory-correct choice for specific interior color palettes or for owners looking to add a subtle, high-end contrast to their center tunnel. Like its black counterpart, this "GR" (German) grade boot is made from a superior rubber compound that provides better UV resistance and a more authentic tactile feel than economy reproductions. This boot serves as a functional seal, sitting at the base of the manual gear shifter to block drafts, road grime, and engine heat from entering the cabin through the shift linkage opening. The high-quality rubber is specifically engineered to handle the constant mechanical stress of shifting gears without cracking or losing its shape, ensuring your interior remains quiet and well-insulated for years to approx.

Technical Specifications Part Number: 111-711-115AGY Material: Premium German Rubber Color: Anthracite Grey Fitment: Manual Transmission Shifters Only Installation & Maintenance Tips Clean the Base Plate: Before installing, ensure the metal shifter base plate is free of old rubber residue or grease to ensure the new boot seats properly. Avoid Sharp Tools: When stretching the boot over the shifter handle, use your fingers only. Screwdrivers or pliers can easily puncture the rubber. Knob Removal: For the safest installation, unscrew your shifter knob first. This prevents the top hole of the boot from being over-extended. Maintenance: To preserve the anthracite grey color, avoid using harsh petroleum-based cleaners. A simple wipe with a damp cloth or a mild rubber protectant will keep it looking new. 111711115AGY
