How to remove legacy Gear knob?

[tom_gr7]

Hi guys

 

Got my legacy yesterday. Does anyone have any idea how to remove the gear knob? I fancy putting an aftermarket one on, but can't figure out how the stock one comes off.

 

thanks in advance.

sorry cant help you with that one - One of the others will be along in a bit I'm sure to point you in the right direction.

I've not played with a newer model but on all the older ones you hold the great stick through the gaiter and unscrew the knob.

my Forester is a screw on, remember the first time i took it off it was FT so hold the shaft through the gaiter as Tlag suggests.

ok thanks chaps, will give that a go in the morning :)

If it's the same as the 55 plate Impreza it does just screw off :)

08 Impreza is just screw on - didnt want to say that in case it had an auto box with a captive screw or something :P

All this talk of !Removed! is not helping my s*x addiction one bit :D 

[tom_gr7]

got it sorted thanks gents ;)

Good stuff so was it just a screw on and off ? 

[tom_gr7]

yeah screw off and pull it flipping hard haha.

 

i need to give the car a good clean inside... looks like the previous owners had mucky kids in the back.

Yeah mine needs a good clean inside and out. I also have mucky kids too but I combat that with tinted windows :D
