I have located a brushed alluminium gear knob boot holder which clamps the boot to the center prop shaft housing or concal thingy. Its in 2 parts and looks like two big washers which clamp together with black allen key set screws. The lower part screws to concal you then lay boot over and fix top part then trim around edge to leave two big washers bottom one about 5mm biger lokks very tidy. if anybody is interested ill put photo on thread when ive got it and fixed it. Please let me know.

Kstead, its a tiv owner thats not a ph,er he has a sought of workshop with lathes etc. My cerbera is only 20 months old and when i change gear the gaiter sometimes comes out of the hole looking untidy, i told this chap the problem he had a look and said he would make an alluminium disc to house the gaiter to the concal. When its fitted ill put picture on, if its what your looking for ill give you his No. Ive told him to keep a template as im sure this must happen to all cerbera's and he wont charge alot either. Ill keep ya posted.

Were you at Mania with it and were you the chap who
asked to see how it fitted in my 4.2?

If not... looks like the flood gates are open!

Call Leven, then you could market the product properly not just for Cerbera's but I'm sure with modifications they would fit Griffiths, Chimaera's Tuscan's T350c's.

Well someone is planning on doing it. As I mentioned
before, I was approached at Mania to try one in my Cerbera.

Before I could ask who, what and where, I was called away.

Anyone here?
