yeah pull that silver trim that holds the letaher gaiter in place, try not to pull any wires off with the ignition on, you should then see a plastic bit at the base of the gear knob, twist this 90 degrees clockwise and then pull like hell on the thing shoud come straight off but try not to smack yourself in the head with it, it hurts!
