Gear shift help
An someone tell me how to replace the gear shit knob? I have an 09 and I popped the top of the ball off and there just a block under it. Do I have to take the shaft out or something?

Easy way or the hard way? They are all pressed on.
1. The hard way, pull as hard as you can and try not to hit yourelf in the head.
2. The easy way. Get a wrench or ball joint tool, crescent wrench, you get the idea. You should be good and mad by now
beacause you have already hit your self in the head 
Take a nice hammer and wack the knob from the bottom and it should go flying into your back seat after a couple taps on the wrench. 
!!!
3. Go get a beer and shop for a new knob!!
