marc_p Posted February 21, 2008 Share Posted February 21, 2008 Ok so the title may be a little decieving, but how do I get the original gear knob off as it seems to be stuck on there well. It's just i'm wanting a fresh OEM one on there. Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndyT Posted February 21, 2008 Share Posted February 21, 2008 Don't if it's like the auto job but that has a little grub screw securing it at the bottom of the shaft under a cover. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dazzi Posted February 21, 2008 Share Posted February 21, 2008 If its a 5 speed it should just twist off if you hold the gear stick below and turn the knob. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marc_p Posted February 21, 2008 Author Share Posted February 21, 2008 Hold the gear stick and twist off the knob Last time someone told me that was with the 306 and I ended up smacking myself with my gear knob in the middle of the train station car park, I chipped my front tooth and had a badly swollen and cut upper lip. People saw me, twas very embarrasing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marc_p Posted February 21, 2008 Author Share Posted February 21, 2008 I bet it was I'm just happy i didn't knock myself out, but when people were asking me what happened to my lip it was hard to try and explain to them that i smacked myself in face with my cars gear knob, the general response seemed to be, how?
