knob removal for retrim

[h4ml3t]

Having the whole interior retrimmed and need to take the gear knob of to get the gaiter off/on
How do you remove the actual knob to get access to the gaiter?

Dont think you have to mate. I took the base off of mine then picked off the stitching then took it off round it. Are you doing the work yourself?

When i replaced mine with some faux suede i drew the template of the original gaiter then added a few inches to the top of the cone and left it big enough to slip over the knob then cabled tied the excess to the stick. Works wonders

This is what it looked like

nah im not doing it myself took it to a retrimmer, having the whole dash and gear surround done in Alcantara and the gaiter too...the dash and pillars are being done now just going to take the surround and the plastics that are under the doors on the floor aswell to be done
