How do you remove the shift ****? I thought it screwed on, however after applying a great deal of torque, it won't come off.

 

it screws on...might need to hit the weight room

 

More torque. It is on there pretty tight.

 

turn it counterclockwise. should come off fairly easy. however some others have had a more difficult time getting it off.

 

hey you got an auto, it does not twist off....at the bottom of the **** there is a piece of plastic you have to push down the plastic either use some kind of knife (but be carefull) or use something made of plastic, once you remove that you wil see a metal clip, when you remove that clip it comes right off. no screwing involved

 

On the 02's and 03's they screw on and off.
Like stated above counterclockwise to remove,
mine was not too hard to unscrew though.

 

i want to change mine as well but i only want to change it if this one fits http://www.sounddomain.com/item/MOMF16ESIL

I need to be 100% sure because i want want to waist my money

thanks

 

I've heard of some people using MOMO ***** on
an automatic and they fit fine.

 

i took mine off today. it s screwed on.

 

Those MOMO shift ***** look great and they will fit!

 

thanks and r u 100% sure? and without modding the shifter right?

 

anybody know the website for all momo products ?

 

So which is it? Mine has a plastic piece at the bottom. I tried turning the leather **** counter-clockwise but it would not budge.

 

everyone says it screws off, so they must be right i'm the only dummy who thinks there is a clip, on an automatic vehicle at my dealership i have had to remove or push down on the plastic piece letting it sit at the bottom of the post, and then you will see a metal retainer clip that can be easily removed by a pair of needle nose pliers, then the **** pulled right off with no problem, but i may not know what i'm talking about seeing as everyone else says they screw off, hope i could help.....

 

the gated shifter on the 02-03 screws on like a manual shift ****. I've replaced mine with a momo phantom shifter...
