Default Help cleaning up a mess made by a shop

So, I had Sleek Motoring here in Colorado Springs do my CDL conversion... but it is really shoddy work (see photo). I am trying to 'fix' it so there is not engine gases / heat entering through the centre console.

Any recommendations on how best to clean this up? Oh and if anyone is in the Colorado Springs Area - stay away from Sleek Motoring. This is one of many examples of their shoddy work and unprofessionalism.

Thank you for any suggestions...

Hi

Don't you just need a new gaiter? Pt No PLN952B @ $14.50 from Rovers North or other suppliers...

Is that how they gave it back to you?? Seems half assed but IDK what you have them in the way of parts.
Regardless looks like you need some foam and a new gaiter. Nothing 15 minutes in a junkyard couldn't correct. You might as well grab the **** with the proper CDL shift pattern while you're at it.

Thats pretty much what you have to do to the foam to be able to shift side to side for CDL. I hacked mine up like that too, ended up sourcing some foam and gaiter from another car to patch it all up.
