Automatic Shifter Knob

Noob question here, but does the shifter knob on the automatic FR-S simply unscrew off without any issues if you want to replace it? Thanks.

Yep, it comes off really easily actually and you just have to work the boot off. I put a Perrin one on and it literally took less than 5 minutes.

yup unscrews and you just have to push the shift boot down off the bottom of the knob. it should just slip off with a little force. Make sure whatever knob you use though has the lip on the bottom to hold the boot up. I have the Perrin that comes ready to go for the automatic and i think Flossy sells an adapter for theirs as well

I bought This http://www.bloxracing.com/bloxshop/i...product_id=511 and this http://www.itsproper.com/wp/shop/10x...-knob-adapter/ and I'll look for a washer to hold the boot up like this guy http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=6435
