I can push it down, but it just expands back up.
The rubber boot seems a bit oversize to me, makes the
gaiter look bloated. The flange of the boot is so
thick that I cannot get the front screw of the trim
ring to even start a thread. And the outside edge of
the ring is a good 0.125" up from the console.

True, but then the new leather seats have perforated
centre panels, so the gaiter won't look too out of
place <g>
