Gear knob chnage on a '89 316i

[jasond]

I have just recently purchased an immmaculate 1989 316i coupe with only 48k miles on the clock.

Could anybody please advise how you remove the existing gear knob as I intend fitting a customised gear knob ?

I know with most Italian cars that all that is required is brute force to pull the gear knob of the shift stock.

I do not want to try this on the BMW for fear of causing damage to the shift stick.

Thanks,
Jason.

Every BMW shift knob I have removed is the same, brute force. Pull straight up, they click lock in when installing.
