has anybody changed the shift knob on the kk 6 speed? if so how do you get the factory one off? I tried to unscrew it but it didnt budge, I could have tried harder but I thought Id check to see if there was a trick first.

I have tried some pretty solid pulls on mine to no avail. It looks like there is a top cap that pulls of but I did not want to mess it up. Has any on e successfully used the yank up method. Is the shaft threaded underneath?

if you have a manual, just pull :twisted: a little twisting may help to unseat the ball in the knob

Its on there good. I tried pulling it off but I felt like I was going brake it (unlikely it would brake). I wanted to take it off, but now im not sure what to replace it with, are shift knobs universal?
