Message	My simple JSpec knob and matching boot from SteAmyZ turned into a nighmare. "just" twist it off, I was told. Nothing. Left loosey, right tighty, I know. Big wrench with towel got it to twist, but the top half of the shifter twisted with the knob. Vice grips on the shifter, big wrench on the knob, turned into one very mangled shift knob. :( Verdict - Broken shifter, torn apart shift knob. Solution - Stillen short shifter, old knob into the trash. rip -Todd
