Possibly getting a Yaris - Toyota Yaris Forums

I'd suggest a new shift boot. Unless it's Auto, in which case I don't think you can get a boot for it.. I could be wrong. Redline Shiftboots is great. Their stuff is leather. Gear knob is easy, just twist and replace. The handbrake lever itself is tricky because you need to detach the cable that links it to the actual brakes, so you'll need to readjust it again afterwards.

The shift boot thats in there already is really tatty, so I was planning on replacing it, maybe even doing it before I owned the car. Gear knob is beyond easy, I've twisted it off before just to take a look.

Regarding the handbrake lever, is that particularly difficult or dangerous?
