I believe so. The stock one is loctited so you will probably need to wrap your knob in a towel (ROFL!!) and put vice grips on it, then get some leverage on it.
Yup Although i found mine a real PITA to take off, needed some vice grips as it was stuck on like a mofo!
Definately anticlockwise looking down on the top of the knob. Maybe the casing has moved but not the actual nut. Probably loctited on as already stated :angry: . If you want to replace the knob then use a set of stilsons on it direct otherwise wrap a towel around it and use stilsons or the like. Good luck. Don't you just love working on these cars.
Urban Myth ??? The guys at Unley Nissan told me there is a locking pin they had to lift the console to get at. Dunno if it's trueor not but would explain the probs getting yours off.
Re: Urban Myth ??? its a knob just like any other car has. why would ours have a locking pin if no other car i know of has one. its just a screw thread. just keep at it and don't give up. my car came with a crappy after market gear knob that wasn't even secured, so it was easy to take mine off. oh, and how did the tail lights go trav??
How many turns is it? I got a dodgy aftermarket knob on mine. I took it off recently to get at the panels, while installing the ZID. It's back on now, but I've turned it like a million times and it still isnt tight. I think i must have busted threads or something. when I'm bored in traffic I'll usually give it a few more spins
