put an adjustable wrench on the shaft beneath the knob (I used a rag in between to prevent dinging the shaft) and wack the wrench with a hammer. Pops right off, make sure your heads not in the way, my knob ended up in the back seat.

Great idea! I'm a huge baseball fan and thought about doing this. Great way to save some money from the stupid expensive aftermarket baseball.

I don't know if there is any way to do with an auto because of the button, but you can jam a baseball with a hole in it on just about anything including your 93.
