Just turn anti-clockwise to unscrew the knob.. its a little stiff at first. then just replace it with a suitable aftermarket knob..

Norman,

It quite easy, all you have to do is to get a suitable knob tat comes with multiple adapters and tat will practically fit all sizes screw threads.....

Once u r ready to install, just turn anti-clockwise to remove original and clockwise to fit in e after market ones....

NOte: if u r most of e time on manual mode and uses e gear shifter instead of e paddle shifter, it is important to get the RIGHT weight and right shape for your after market knob.

Reason: e weight and shape does affect ur comfort and efficiency in gear change. Tats why u'll see some fast ride with "Urgly" looking knobs not becos e driver prefers e shape or looks, but it could have been e most suitable n effective knob for them.

Cheers

U got yourself a new knob?
Was thinking to change mine too. The stock knob is just too plain looking...:)
Where did you get yours by the way?

thks

Not yet bro.. I am just looking online to see what options for change.. I kinda like the one with rotary logo on the top and 2-tone black/red with red stitching (I can hear you drooling now!!).. I was just fiddling with my knob (the one in my car!! The other one is not a knob.. take my word for it..) to find out if I can replace myself :)
