hey y'all. i was wondering if anyone knew how to remove the auto shift knob in an automatic? (yes... an automatic! lol.) i've been struggling with it. I have already removed both screws that are located on the front of the knob and have taken the center console off but have had no luck. The shift knob just slides up and down but it won't come completely off. I'm afraid that If I pull on it too hard, it'll break or that I will damage something. I've also googled this topic but have had no luck so i'm turning to the 6gc community. any advice would be greatly appreciated.

You have to remove the Overdrive switch wiring somehow. Most people cut it. I never found a way to take it off without cutting wires =_=

Along with breaking the wire for the overdrive switch.
