Be1 Gear Knob Removal

[Galifrey 1]

Spent some time trying to unscrew this today, clearly this is not the right method, so what is the trick?

 

Want to replace it with a BE3 knob.

twist side to side and pull upwards, watch your nose, and sunroof if you have one!

twist 1/4 left or right and pull.

Get it warm and pull hard

Ok so need to get it warm first, at the moment it won't turn more than 1/8th of a turn, and even then it is incredibly tight.

 

Is it threaded on? Is cutting off an option?

 

I shall give it a go again!

is it the indented marking type & is it in good condition?

If it is and if you get it off in one piece how much would you want for it?

Regards

You could cut it off, if you don.t care for it. It's not threaded but it has ridges on the stick. goes down easy enough but you have to watch your nose when removing

It is on both counts, means I have to take it off carefully

Managed to get it off easily by turning it clockwise, it kinda unscrewed, however, a piece of the knob fell off (powerful right hand grip, can't think why ) But the insert was off so that is in good nick if you need it flipper.

Please PLEASE tell me you smashed yourself in the nose removing it?

 

That eclipses a steering wheel face smack by a long way.

I've a really useful tip for this.

 

You just need some toilet roll. Take one sheet and tear it in half. Then roll each half in to a tight little ball. They should each fit nicely up the nostrils and really help to stem the blood flow once you have the knob off
