the chance of wrecking the OEM knob while removing it is extremely high thus I will suggest Mr.Elan just change the knob...

I doubt he can remove the knob without wrecking the leather...

not doubting OP's ability, but it happens 90%+.... :icon17:

I got pissed off at mine and took a pipe wrench to it. Peeled the pleather right off of the ball and then caught on the plastic and it came off. I pieced it back together but it'll never look new again....Thing was tight!

I just use a wrench to take it off, didn't really care about if I could damage it after knowing 90% of the case it will get wrecked... :bowrofl:

Well I think the problem is the little leather piece on top of the shifter. Does anyone know how to take it off or fix it without destroying it?
