Do you have the 124 manual transmission shifter surround? The surround has a raised plastic lip that the bottom edge of the boot slips over, if you're trying to use a 124 auto transmission shifter surround you don't have that lip and would need to fabricate something to serve that purpose.

It's as Billy Bob describes. I have an '88 300E five speed and when I replaced the boot I just peeled it off and then removed the knob to slip it the rest of the way off.

BTW, just so you know, the boot is the exact same part as is used on the 123 manual transmission cars.

Interesting, I am going to track down a 123 shifter console and see if the opening is the same size.

The 123 and 124 openings are not the same. Also the 124 auto console does not have the routed edge and the 123 mount will not work in there. Anyone have a 201/124 manual shifter center console (preferable horrible condition wood)?
