I have a stock 6 speed shift knob with the integrated boot. I am thinking about replacing it with an aftermarket knob (maybe Raceseng).

What are my options for a boot? Do people normally cut the boot off the old knob and zip tie it to the new one? On ebay it looks like there are places that sell leather replacements, but you would need to attach it to a base.

I would prefer not to hack up my old knob in case I swap back in the future. Thanks!
