The original plastic frame that holds the outer shifter boot to the center console was broken, so I ordered a new one a few years ago. I think it was from partworks.de but I can't find it anymore.

It seems to be held in with 2 plastic wedges per side but the shape of the frame doesn't seem quite right. Its not clicking in firmly and it rattles when I drive.

Anyone know of a quality aftermarket shifter boot frame, or do I need to get an original part? I'm hoping to keep my original shift knob, etc.

For the outer plastic frame that holds the outer shift boot to the plastic center console, I replaced mine with one from 944online (https://944online.com/) - but doesn't look like he has them now.

Does look like URO makes a replacement in black, but their parts aren't always highly regarded:
