Someone broke the plastic piece surrounding the leather shift boot trying to get the radio out in my car. I was trying to replace it and I needed to take off my shift **** and it is tight as hell. I turned it and the leather around the **** slipped and turned and ripped and the **** didn't budge. I can't get it off. Can anyone help? Does it just unscrew...counterclockwise right? Also the dealer says the **** will be 70 dollars. Is there a good aftermarket **** or does anyone have their old original one to sell. Thanks.

 

I have the automatic leather **** for sale. I converted my car to 5spd. give me 35 bucks. I got the **** replaced in last march due to break in of my car. Its in excellent condition.

 

Well, when I went to take the shift **** off, it wouldn't budge either. I was replacing it and didn't care what happened to it so I was able to unscrew it (right tighty...lefty loosey). I had to use channel locks though because the screws had super glue on them from the factory I guess. Anyway, I put a new Momo on. It was aroun 50 or 60 bucks I think. And the aftermarket one looks MUCH better and "cleaner" than the original.

 

Sorry to hear that someone was trying to take your radio. Yes, it should unscrew counter-clockwise. Look into aftermarket shift ***** but if you really want a stock one I will sell you my old one real cheap. It is in perfect condition other than the fact that the shift patern is worn down pretty good.

 

Where is a good place to buy an aftermarker ****? Where did y'all get yours from?

Thanks Toolrocks...I sent you an email about it.

I bought mine through a local import shop. Not a cheap way of doing it. But they had a good choice of Momo's in stock to choose from. There are alot cheaper places to get nice ***** though. Check the "Links" portion of Maxima.org

 

Personally I like the factory shift ****, but it is on there pretty tight. They're machine tightened at the factory

If you have an automatic, can't remember if he said he did.... Greg at Custom Maxima has the Levoc Automatic Shift **** for sale. They look tight as hell...
I will have one soon as soon as I save up enough cans..he he jk

Thanks for the help. I do have a manual and I am planning on buying Toolrocks'. Again, thanks for all the help. Later.

 

Get the nismo **** hehe..it'll only cost you 100 bux

 

It is on there kinda tight but once you move it like 1/4 of an inch then your set from there. It is held on by a tough glue but once that loses the seal on it is comes off very easy.

took my friend's shift **** off his max. use a rubber pad to get the best grip but a rag will suffice, take a c-clamp and tighten that sucker down on the head of the ****. turn counterclockwise and she'll unthread nice and pretty. no marks, scratches, or blemishes. and you won't jerk the heck out of your hands. sweet.
