So has anyone been able to take off the stock shifter w/o messing up the OEM ****? If so, any suggestions? I have a Trust shift **** coming in the mail.

Anyone else had issues with there removal? Going to try tomorrow. The time I did it on my Z seemed to be pretty simple. Seems to be the same as the others mentioned.
Last time used vice grips and rag on the **** with an adjustable wrench to twist of. It was easy that time around. Just looking for any updates.

There are instructions and diagrams on how to remove the shift **** in the Service Manual. It starts on page 18 of the tm section (Transaxle & transmission).
- Remove shift **** with the following procedure.
- Release metal clips on console finisher assembly.
- Lift console finisher assembly and then set a suitable pliers to control lever assembly. CAUTION: Put waste cloth between a suitable pliers and control lever assembly to avoid damaging control lever assembly.
- Set a suitable pliers to shift ****. (the picture shows two sets of pliers here) CAUTION: Put waste cloth between a suitable pliers and shift know to avoid damaging shift ****.
- Keeping control lever assembly in place with a suitable pliers, loosen shift **** with pliers. NOTE: Remove shift **** from control lever assembly keeping a suitable pliers in place because a certain power to turn shift **** is still necessary even after adhesive is peeled.
