How to remove shift knob

[De-marko]

How do you remove it? My car has a couple "ricey" items that were installed when I bought it. One being this aftermarket shift knob, "oklahoma chrome" spray painted air conditioner vents and calipers. :yuck: Also, some fake carbon fiber looking door handle bezels.

The car was a good price so I overlooked these items. I bought some vents from a junkyard and painted the calipers red, better than the "chrome" I suppose. The aftermarket knob will come off easy because someone modified a manual knob. I found a dark gray leather wrapped handle, which is the color of my interior, at my junkyard and want to know how to get it off. I want to "de-rice the auto."

If its like the stocker in anyway see if that funny cone shaped piece below that hideous knob pulls down. If so you would have a screw under it. simply remove it and pull it off.

Right. This cheapy on here is a snap to remove, but the stock knob looks pretty tough to pull.

Seriously-its that easy. Pull the bottom ring down and you will see a screw.

Thanks all. I didn't realize it was that straight forward.

Damnit now I want a :q:q:q:qin Wooden shift knob for my LS......I'm starting to hate the look of the leatherette one...and I wonder if anyone makes a Wooden E-brake overlay...kinda like the carbon fiber one you see on ebay but it's just like the...um..poplar? one we have in the LS's

Hey Pete, What color is your shift knob?

 

[PetesSweets86]

The grey leather one...my interior is the grey interior but I might repaint(stain the leather) the intire panels/seats to more of a grey-stone color..more of a steel look....it would look better especially with the pinstriping (The dark grey panel color will be the pinstripe color) and might get some special stitching in the headrest like a gun version of the Skull/crossbones...only it's a AK47 crossed with a M4.....good :q:q:q:q

Hey Pete, What color is your shift knob?

Referring to me? My interior is parchment.

petesweets is referred to as repete. To eliminate confusion.

"Pete and RePete went out on a boat, Pete fell out, who was left?"

 

[JWerner2]

Im sure pete just wanted to kill himself for being stuck on a boat with repete.
