    Mine...Sparco - adds a bit of length and has a real nice solid feel - can be cold though (can't have everything I guess...LOL )

    they need alot of pulling, as above put it into reverse and pull and twist, should then leave you with a pointy white bit, then just replace etc.

    stick it in 4th, get one leg over into the passenger side, grab yer knob and give it an almighty tug. might help with a bit of a twist just be careful not to clout the back of your head on the cieling when it does come off
