Why two replacements? Because the first is made from a cheesy fake leather, and the outer skin separated from the inner layer, which is falling apart. The second replacement, on the right, is made from real leather. I got this from an eBay vendor in the UK. Much better.

I mounted the boot directly to the console panel underside, using contact cement.

Before installing the panel, I wanted to hide the bight stuff visible through the slot for the heater control lever.

A scarp of black vinyl took care of that.

The final bit on the panel is the "Defroster" indicator. This now has an LED bulb.

I sourced a new knob for the lever, in brick red instead of the bright red.
