Part Out: Electronics/Exhaust/ART Pipes/Other stuff

^I literally just unscrewed it off with my bear (lol) hands. It was tight but some people get some type of grip with a handle, get it on super tight, and just spin. Mine wasn't damaged at all

PS: Let me know where I stand for the GTR button OP

i tried to be gentle with it.
but i destroyed the ***** out of it.

cheshirecat · 02-20-2013, 02:46 PM

it seems like some knobs are really glued on there and others are just tight. it's hit or miss honestly

i suggest, in this order

- trying it with your hand, if it's really on there
- use a rubber oil filter wrench with a towel wrapped around it, if it's still tough
- pop up the shifter ring and get a pair of vice grips to make sure you don't overtorque the shift stalk, and REALLY turn it

it'll eventually come off

It went with my old 350z.

If you can't get it off, please let me know so I can refund your paypal. It's not right of me to have your money when I can't ship you the knob. Looking forward to hearing from you when the stock knob is removed.
