How to Remove a Manual Gear Shift Knob?
1 Answers
Most manual transmission gear shift knobs are screwed on and may have one or two securing screws. Remove the securing screws and rotate the knob counterclockwise to detach it. For some models, the gear shift knob is connected to the dust boot. In this case, you need to first loosen the dust boot by prying it out with a trim panel tool. Since this involves replacing the knob with a non-OEM part, you'll need to install the included securing bolt. Slide the securing bolt onto the gear shift lever and tighten it clockwise. Screw on the new gear shift knob to complete the installation.
