gear knob

dman3uk · 24th October 2007, 18:59

I know this sounds stupid but does anybody know how to remove the type R gear knob?

I presume it just unscrews but I've tried my hardest and it wont budge. Is it something to do with the collar/spacer thing underneath it?

Now we want to know why you want to remove it. Surely its not frozen to your hand in the mornings, or this morning infact as it was blumming freezing here the day!

Just thought.....you might want to ask one of the guys who have taken the gear knob off their Civics and replaced it with the R one

Yes it was rather cold this morning. Ah! good old Scottish weather.

The reason I want to remove it, is that I've just got delivered today a nice new Mugen one.

Robbo51 changed is gear knob to the Type R one, then decided he didn't like it and took it back off.

He should be able to tell you how to take it off. Drop him a wee mail

there is a locking nut underneath on the R I think, which you need to loosen before unscrewing the main knob bit
