I was looking at buying a new shift knob but I've tried time and time again, looked around on how to do it, failed on all terms. i CAN NOT get the damn shift knob off. does anyone have a video, detailed instructions, or someone in the western slope of Colorado willing to come do it for me!!!
sorry to specify. its an 01 5 speed
how about an 03 cavy 5 speed
All 00-05 5-speeds are the same... grab and pull.
i've tried and tried and tried. still not working. is there anything i need to take out first?
oooooooooooo i tryed pulling and twisting all that funnnn stuff and not a thing happened. it was at a junk yard im going back there on Monday ill try alittle harder
honestly, is there some kind of trick to it, because i pulled and twisted, and twisted and pulled, stood on the center console and pulled, and twisted, got in the back seat and pulled. and nothing worked
work out for a few weeks.
come back and twist and pull.
nope nothing hold its on its just on there really good gotta twist it as your pulling just so you know if you put it on and take it off again its a little easier its just removing it for the first time

Why does everyone make threads saying that they have trouble with this?
When I went to install my short shifter, I couldn't get the shift knob off with my hands either....Tried for 10 seconds, and said "nope, not gonna happen"
Being a tradesman, I went to my kit, grabbed my channel locks, gave it a twist and pull, and it popped right off.
Sometimes common sense works better than force
alright, ill just have my football linebacker buddy take it off
btw NOTa2 4. you should PM me because you did the swap i want to do and i got a few questions
not to come off as a dink but what do you want me to PM your about???????? just to say HEY, also you wanna do a 3800 and your having issues removing a shift knob?????
