Gear knob on 2005 manual

[bassman Lurker Find all posts View Profile Close bassman]

Gday,

I have recently had the misfortune of my gear knob's threading that holds the cover on, coming undone and peeling away. I priced one at the local toyota shop and it was $250......
Anyway, i dont really want to pay that much and thought i would get one front somewhere else and change it over. The problem here is that i cannot work out how to get the gear knob off of the gear stick, and i dont want to break it trying.

Anyone know how to do this? And does anyone know of a suitable replacement for a gear knob?

Thanks,

The gear shifters are threaded and both the gear knobs just unscrew off the top of them.

I did try that in the first instance, but it didn't want to budge. So i tried again and it screwed off. Thanks.
