I must have been pissed last night......I meant the rubber seal thing that goes over the selectors ie at the very top of the box. It's a bit hard to make one of THEM out of gasket paper - now aint it!!??#@&*^
B.T.W. I don't mean the boot that sticks into the cabin either - it's under that even.

Well you just haven't tried have you!! lol

Seriously, I'm pretty sure its not made aftermarket. Try your local holden dealer. They'll be able to tell you if it's available or not, if not, off to the wreckers.
