How do you remove the gear knob?

As above (on mk2 ph1's)

Many thanks

Hack Saw.

Yeah apart from butchering it, is there a way?

 

[Gumby]

I wanted to take it off and spray it (so 1 piece would be preferable)

Pull like f**k, they've bonded on but they will come off with some serious pursuasion. Twist it as your pulling will be very tight.

Had to hammer and chizzle my Corsa's one off! Was a right pain

 

[Gumby]

Done it! Ended up tapping upwards with a very light hammer, which only took about 60 seconds in the end lol.

Cheers for the suggestions
