KUGT4 Posted December 10, 2013 Posted December 10, 2013 finally getting around to fitting - can't work out how to dismantle the thing got this far... Quote
BillyZed Posted December 10, 2013 Posted December 10, 2013 To remove the gear knob twist it counter clockwise and unscrew, might be a bit stiff if it hasn't been removed before Quote
14N Posted December 10, 2013 Posted December 10, 2013 (edited) Whoa! Stop! You need to hold the shaft (ooer) before twisting the knob (ooer again). I'll find you a guide....

Grundy Posted December 10, 2013 Posted December 10, 2013 Get some molegrips on the Rubber piece you see in the centre of the picture. Then keep the grips still, and twist gear knob with your hand Quote
KUGT4 Posted December 10, 2013 Author Posted December 10, 2013 cheers looking to replace the gaiter as well - this require additional work? Quote
BillyZed Posted December 10, 2013 Posted December 10, 2013 cheers looking to replace the gaiter as well - this require additional work? Not much more work really. May as well while you are there Quote

EDIT: This should do: http://www.nicoclub....issan-350z.html What he said ^^ - holding the bottom of the shaft is VERY IMPORTANT or you could damage the linkage Quote
R35LEE Posted December 10, 2013 Posted December 10, 2013 Some of them come off relatively easy and some destroy the gearknob getting them off. I have had 2 that felt like they were welded on Sent from my HTC One using Tapatalk Quote
Easty Posted December 11, 2013 Posted December 11, 2013 I pulled my knob off really easily and then had to really put to pressure to change it to a small metal one haha Only problem is it's a bit cold when you grasp it first thing in the morning!!! Quote
imhereithink85 Posted December 14, 2013 Posted December 14, 2013 i had to get a mate to hold the shaft while i twisted the knob, super tight, but a bit of patience and it came away . . . innuendo bingo at its best Quote
WhackyWill Posted December 14, 2013 Posted December 14, 2013 I'm happy with the knob I have.. :thumbs: Quote
