Aftermarket shift knobs?

Anyone tried to remove the shiftknob yourself yet? Is it difficult?
Anyone has pictures of your newly installed aftermarket shift knob?

Thank you for the site. Looks like the shift knobs are new addition to the site. I was talking with them before and they did not have them yet. I would consider. They are the same people I got my illuminated sills from. I received them without any problem. I am waiting for the right time to have my installer install them.
BTW, it is very easy to remove the leather boot of the **** knob. the instruction is in the Manual that comes with the car! When you flip the boot inside out, you will see a plastic collar underneath. A slight turn with just your hand will release it and expose another collar. This second collar appears to be tight around the rod. I haven't tried loosening it yet. It might require a pair of pliers. I would post it if I am successful.
