I've got a 2001 Sportage. How the heck do I remove the black plastic shifter knob? (5-speed manual).
The 12345R plastic piece on top has come unglued in the hot Texas sun, and superglue won't hold it anymore, so I want to just take off the knob and replace it with a generic one.
I've looked at kiatechinfo, and it just says "unscrew the knob". Do I just need to find a big enough wrench and twist the entire thing left? From the pictures on kiatechinfo, the aluminum "collar" below it stays on the shift lefter shaft.
