Console boots for 4 speed

I think there are three rubber pieces I need - an outer boot, a shifter boot, and a reverse lockout rod boot. But then there are retainer rings too. Some of this I have, some I likely don't.

Does anyone know of a good diagram for the "soft parts" between the transmission and the car, like the boots and retainers?

Thanks!
Dave
Here's one style:

...or do you need both? I was thinking the first one would be for a bench seat car and the second one for a console car? But I need diagrams...

Looks like those are the outer and inner boots, both required. I've got those, the two rings, and what I think is the shift boot. Unless someone has some NOS to part with I'll likely need the repros from eBay.

Someone on the Pontiac site mentioned that someone here could rebuid my clutch rod boot, the little one. Anyone know who does that?

Hi Dave , thanks for buying the boots. Thats all the rubber you need, theres still a slider that covers all of this up.

I do have the slider, my console was complete so far as I can tell.

Where'd you find these diagrams? Not in my parts book, or assembly manual, or shop manual, or Fisher body manual...
