'02 shifter

[civic_north]

This is a question of a newbie, but i know I'm not. this car is my first standard Honda, I'm having a hell of a problem getting the shifter off, I don't want to have to shift with the rod.

Any suggestion would be appreciated

Thanks

and how do u want to shift ? pulling the cables ?:crazy:

I just got a new shift knob, but really can't figure out how to get that one off, I'm figuring the boot has to come off to get to the sleeve thats used to hold it tight. I can't ge the boot off.

probably have to remove the dash to get the thing off.....have fun. :D

you cant just unscrew the shift knob?

it should just unscrew..........i'm almost positive

[civic_north]

The boot is connected to the shift knob. I tried unscrewing the knob and the boot started turning with it. That's why I gave up and started this thread.
