How do you remove the shift knob?
How do you remove a shift knob on the 08 TL? I've read that you just unscrew it but that's on 04-06 TLs. I've tried to counter clockwise unscrew it but doesn't seem to budge. Any ideas? Try harder?

Twist the shift boot collar a bit and pull down and the collar should slide down. (there's a clip that holds the collar to the shift knob) If you have trouble getting the shift knob broken loose a nylon strap style filter wrench works great without damaging the leather on the knob.

AT <=> MT
AT = screw on/screw off
MT has the boot and collar.
When a question is posted it helps EVERYBODY if the OP lists year, transmission and/or trim.

And does it take some elbow grease to get the knob off?

Why are you so Asian?
Sorry I had to. No disrespect intended.
Anyways, I had a bitch of a time getting my shift knob off BUT it finally came undone.

If it's a 6mt I love my Voodoo Titanium knob. Cost a fortune but it feels great, lowers the shifter height about an inch, has great weight to it, and perfectly matches the shiny parts of the interior of my car.
