Take off the white clip from the boot. Invert the boot and cable tie it to just below the threads on the stick. Then you pull the trim down towards the place where it is meant to click back in, and the boot should be the correct side around but with the cable tie hidden inside the boot. Put the nut on all the way down the threads, then put the knob on all the way down. Turn the knob back up a little until the numbers are the right side up and then tighten the nut while securely holding the knob.

I did exactly what you said and it was perfect.

Nice instructions. Thanks.

I also lubed up the internal linkages/parts with a like nulon spray while I was at it.

Its really nice now. Makes the cars shift feel meatier and very easy to shift.

Only downside is that the metals cold and will probably be very hot in summer.

The grey tone of the skunk2 knob really matches the interior and doesn't stick out like polished knobs! LOL
