Can anybody help a colleague, he has a Mini Cooper S and has a new gearknob to fit but is struggling to remove the old one as it is just spinning.
Any help would be much appreciated

It pulls off.
both hands on it and yank hard-dont do what someone did a few years ago and let go as you pull it.It went through the rear screen!

LOL that would warrant a bit of mickey taking at the pub.
Cheers for that I will pass it on

I nearly put a hole in my headlining when i took mine off, rather tight.
