Wow lol

I didn't want to take the shift knob out this way to avoid stressing the shift linkage underneath.

I ended up using a vice and wrapped a towel all the way around the knob and used a flat tip screwdriver as leverage through the shifter connect to loosen the loctite grip.

Got any pics of your nismo shift knob? There are several Nismo shift knobs and I'm curious how they look installed.

For now, I'm still a fan of the stock shift knob.
