How to replace Knob E89

Post by Frankie169 » Wed Oct 10, 2018 1:19 pm

Hi Guys

Ive bought a Stormwerk knob to replace the OEM one, after reading the articles on how to I managed to pull off the knob from the gear stick but it came off complete with the leather gater as shown in the photos, so question is how do I remove the OEM knob from the gater to allow install of the new one?
