Gear Stick gaiter

[Black Cat]

Hi,

I have a ‘J’ type overdrive gearbox fitted in my 1977 1500 Triumph Spitfire. I’m not sure if I have a part missing, I have a flat gaiter with a sleeve which slips around the gear stick and sits on the tunnel and the retaining plate which secures the gaiter to the tunnel.

I’m fitting new carpets and the gearbox carpet has a built in leather like gaiter. My question is, is there a rubber gaiter which slides over the gear stick and is fixed to the retaining plate on the tunnel?

dont think so  rubber screwed down to  the tunnel   the carpet gaiter just sits over the top to trim it nicely

Thanks Pete,

wasn’t quite sure if there was any other gaiter but have fitted it all together now and the flat gaiter with the sleeve fits nicely around the ball of the gear stick and seems to seal any gaps.
