DIY: Complete Auto Shifter Removal

[GETxERxDONE]

1. start off by finding something to pry the trim apart i used a throwing knife and small pry bar.


and then you are left with a little lip sticking out find something to hit that to
2. knock it down, i used the bottom of a screwdriver.

3. now you can see the 2 screws on the knob, unscrew them. but be careful not to drop them, they are short screws

4. now find something to pry up the trim i used a tool from my leatherman. that corner is where you need to pry. it comes up pretty easily.

5.now pry the 2 tabs that hold on the PRND piece as pictured.

there is a bulb attatched to this. twist the bulb and it will pull out. you can replace this bulb with a blue one to make them light up blue if you wish too but im doing a shifter boot so i wont be doing that. heres a pic of the bulb


and now you are done, you can put a shift boot on there if you wish or w/e you want.



heres some pics of how i attatched my shift boot too if anyone wanted to know.

[B MAN]

thats awesome!

[WiseGuyLX]

holy cow you can take of the PNRD tab thing off?? Lol, I have a shift boot on mine and it took forever for me to keep the silver trip to stay because there's no room for the boot to go. Would this free up room and get the silver trip to stay better? Great DIY!

[GETxERxDONE]

lol thanks, yeah it frees up room but it makes too much room and you have to attatch the boot to the trim somehow.
