NP435 Shifter Covers. Show me Yours.

With the NP435 in place, I'm curious to see how you guys covered the hole. I got away with a pretty small hole. I think that with an oversized boot I might be able to get away from patching any sheetmetal. What did you do?

I have a 2 inch body lift, so I got away with cutting a pretty small hole too. I just used the stock NP435 boot and bent the metal frame to match the angle of the tranny cover. Here's the only pic that have of it on this computer. You can see most of it.

Unfortunately, my hole isn't that small. I didn't drop the rear of the engine to mate the tranny, so I had to cut to the back of the body brace.

I used a large piece of diamond plate to create a "new floor" then used a shift boot from a '98 Dodge 3500. Works great. I also have a 2" BL, but didn't drop the back of the motor. I had to do alot of cutting, because I did twinsticks at the same time and needed to cut for clearance.

I used a Hurst Supershifter boot, it is pretty big (7 3/4x8 3/4), covered big hole.
