Got my leather shift knob today but it came with very Ikea-like instructions which don't make it obvious how to remove the shifter surround and I don't want to chance breaking it. Anyone who's already done the install care to share how it went?
I assume you have to remove the knobs?I did mine and realized that the bezel includes a part that covers the climate control knobs. it's not shown that way in the instructions.
Have you had the upper bezel off? I still want to pull mine off and paint it.nope, the knobs stay intact. Check out my install pics: Fiesta Modifications - a set on Flickr
I have had the trim around the shifter off 3 times since these pics were taken. Always trying new things with the car, concerning the 3M wrap. The first attempt did not work out so well, so it has been redone since the pics.
Very cool, I like what you've done with the 3M Carbon-fiber film. Did you use any tools in removing the shifter bezel or did you just pull up gently at the bottom above the sync emblem and work your way from there?nope, the knobs stay intact.
