Floor mats and shifter

Got a bit of work done on the Tunebug tonight. Installed the shifter I got from Whitephrog, which is in better shape than the one I was using. It's also the slightly later version, which is cranked back a bit so you're less likely to bang your knuckles when shifting into first.

I also fitted a set of the inexpensive rubber floor mats that Moss sells. I needed to pad my order a bit, so I figured I'd give these a try. The carpet in the Tunebug is horrible, so anything would be better than what was in there. Took a little bit of fitting on the driver's side, but in the end everything went in well. Big improvement over the old nasty carpet, and it's really a pretty heavy-duty rubber material. Should stay put better too -- I'm pleased with them.

Should be nice out in your nasty weather area.
