Question, how do you remove the shift knob and boot if you have push start? Is it a twist or pull?

Thanks guys, interiors look great!

Wow, those are some awesome before & after pics. Ivan, I can't wait till all my carbon fiber parts come in............very excited about my SL500's upcoming transformation in a few weeks.

Hey, for all you members who are considering upgrading to carbon fiber parts, I just wanted to say that I have personally visited DCT Mortorsports's showroom and they have some very nice quality products!!!!!!!!
