It should work that bottom chrome part just pops off and then the rest you have to pull straight up. I'm pretty sure the stem and opening is the same on both jeeps.

It'll fit but may or may not snap in.

I'm using a shift knob from a Dodge Durango. I liked the way it felt in my hand.

Ok this seems kinda trivial, but I really wanted to replace my shift knob with this

Will it work? Or does the knob have to lock into place?

It doesn't HAVE to lock in place, mine doesn't lock (not made for Liberty!), I'd say if it fits rather snugly, you should be fine. If I pull up on my Durango knob, it'll come right off. So, solution... don't pull up on it. :lol: :lol:

I'm running one from a compass. Looks a lot better in my opinion.

Take a screwdriver or something and pry that piece on the bottom off.
