It will come off. I had one of my cars where I had to use vice grips to remove it. (I wrapped a towel around the shift knob so that it wouldn't get damaged) Be careful if you try it that way.

Same. Mine was a thunder **** to remove. Think I had to use 2 people and 2 sets of vise grips on it.zerepdivad wrote: ↑Mon Feb 22, 2021 8:35 pmIt will come off.

In contrast, my Miata's used to just slip off from time to time.
