Hi Guys,

I want to change my original gear knob from my '10 civic VTi, I have a question..

How will the shift boot lock to the new gear knob as it doesn't have that plastic thing that connects knob to boot, will i need a new boot?

the knob i want is this one, http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Honda-OEM-Gear-Shift-Knob-5-Speed-Manual-Civic-CRX-/110665448409?pt=AU_Car_Parts_Accessories&hash=item19c42cbbd9#ht_3453wt_1120

thanks guys! ;)

You won't be able to connect the shift boot to the new gear knob. However what I did was remove the plastic bit and fold my shift boot inwards and it looks fine around my Razo RA66 knob.
