- Update: CUT THE BOOT ON THE VERY TOP GROOVE NOT ON THE NEXT ONE AS I DID! THAT ALLOWS MORE ROOM FOR THE SHIFTER THROW.
Installing the 77-79 Jeep CJ transfer case shifter boot in the Honda Talon shifter base to mitigate the heat and dust coming up thru the shifter opening. We also insulate the bottom of the console to help with the heat around the cup holders. Super simple install.

Your videos are always so well done. Camera angles, sound, lighting etc. on top of actually being informative.
Thank you! I enjoy making the videos very much.
I purchased this boot. As well as the heat displacement kit from your other video. Thank you for doing videos both of these products.
Thanks for watching the channel Tyler!
Terry, I appreciate your advice. The Jeep boot and shift knob and plate are now installed. One less heat source for the cab. I obtained the boot from Rock Auto and after a bit of modification it works very well.
Awesome! Thanks for watching!
I MADE A MISTAKE WHEN I CUT THE SHIFTER BOOT. CUT OFF ONLY THE VERY TOP FLAP NOT AT THE 2ND ONE LIKE I DID. THAT WILL ALLOW MORE SHIFTER THROW AND IT'LL BE EASIER TO GET IT IN LOW.
Love the graphics on the talon .
Thanks! They were custom made by a local sign shop.
@@terryhatfieldmin my 2023 is black, so not much I can do with it. lol . white is a great background for those graphics.
@@hammer-r Ours was red originally. We disassembled it and painted it white before adding the graphics.
@@terryhatfieldmin ah ok, looks great. As for the boot. I just got it and we really don’t ride in the heat, but as I ride, if I think I’ll need it, I know where to look. Tks again.
Great video Terry! Super informative!
Thank you Eric!
Just what I was looking for. Thank you.
Glad I could help!
Great job Terry!
Thank you!
Your gonna love it!
Thanks Overton! It's going to be hot a crazy humid this weekend so it'll get the test right away.
Another awesome video
Very helpful
Thank you!
Great videos Terry, do you have a link for your shifter knob?
Thanks! I bought it on Ebay but I haven't seen them in stock anywhere in a good while.
Terry, where did your gauge relocation video go? I bought a kit just like it and it uses your video for the instructions lol.
Here's the link. th-cam.com/video/kQ4I3bMEIrQ/w-d-xo.html
Thanks for sharing!
Thank you Ron and thanks for watching!
Thanks Terry got one coming. So only cut the top part? Not like your video?
Correct. It works the way I did it but you'll have a little bit more room if you only cut the top fold off the boot.
Terry, you are absolutely right that the clips used on the console are awful. Does anyone have a link to buy the other kind as Terry used in the vid?

Bought the shifter in the more recent link. Quick service. Found the hole in boot was racetrack shape .680x.525”. Shifter rod is .360”. Did you find this and how did you close the gap? Keep up great videos!😀
Is it necessary to have the opening tight on the shifter rod?
I noticed that as well, but think it's better to have a bit of an opening so water can drain when I spray it out.

Thank you for sharing
Thanks for watching!
How did the insulation around the cup holders work out. do you think you could go with a thicker than 80mil insulation or would it not fit?
Worked well. Should be plenty of room for that insulation.
Thanks
Thoughts Terry on being able to put a hurst T shift handle on the shifter? I know they traditionally thread on, but I was wondering what you thought on that idea of something working. Thanks
Don't see why not. Obviously will take some adapting. If you could cut off the tang and thread the shaft to match the shifter knob it would be perfect but not sure how those shaft diameters match up.
Terry, if you add the boot to hopefully reduce heat and dust out of the console, what do you do to allow water to drain from th ejeep boot when washing inside talon? tia
The shifter hole in the boot is a good amount larger than the shifter on the Talon. You don't need to do anything.
Ok. Thanks Terry! Really enjoy your videos!! Very well done!
@@brianelliott5346 Thanks for watching!
Terry, did you have any issues getting the console cover back on? Mine seems that it needs to do forward more. Tried taking off the trim around the dash but can’t seem to get them to fit in order to get push pins in. Any suggestions?
I did not have any issues getting the console back on. Are you sure the front tab on the console is in the correct place? I've not heard of anyone having issues.
@@terryhatfieldmin thanks for the quick reply, really like your videos and I also purchased the heat kit. My front end of my console looks different than yours. I have a 2021 1000-x. Could the new shift gate I have be too thick? I bought a PBR gate. When I take off the front trim around the dash it fits fine but then I can’t get the trim back on.
@@terryhatfieldmin mine does have the same front tab on the console cover and it appears that it goes in correctly but it needs to slide forward another 1/4-3/8 of an inch to line up the holes on the sides for the push pins. Going to try putting on the stock shift gate and see if that works.
@@stevebarthel1 I don't understand a difference in the console. They are the same part number for all years. Also have no experience with the PBR gate but I wouldn't think it would be thick enough to cause a fitment problem.
@@terryhatfieldmin I finally figured out what I was doing wrong. Feel really stupid. The front tab on the console needed to go over the top of the green dash piece not under it. Didn’t pay enough attention when disassembling. Senior moment. Thanks for the reply.
Maybe I missed the video, what are the switches beside your cupholders?
Those are for the heated seats. I didn’t do a video for that install.

It's Noico 80 mil car sound deadening mat. Looks like the 5 sq ft pack is out of stock on Amazon. You can just search for any 80 mil sound deadening or here's the link for 10 sq ft. www.amazon.com/Noico-deadening-Automotive-Insulation-dampening/dp/B01KZ5X7KO/ref=dp_prsubs_1?pd_rd_w=8P6XK&content-id=amzn1.sym.6a0b07b6-1a0b-45e8-8450-5c85af215183&pf_rd_p=6a0b07b6-1a0b-45e8-8450-5c85af215183&pf_rd_r=NVYW7G1SN1W1FXZ8R62M&pd_rd_wg=Ia2Ho&pd_rd_r=ebc87a97-92ed-4929-a4d6-6326438cd1d4&pd_rd_i=B01KZ5X7KO&psc=1
Thank you I really like information you share
@@robcurry9667 Thank you.
Terry I have to ask…. Any relation??🤣🤣
eBay Link says out of stock. Anybody else?
I put the boot in the search on Ebay. There are a few from other suppliers.
