Hello all,
I cant believe i am asking this, but i just got my momo **** in the mail, and cant get the oem **** off. It is a screw on type right? I have twisted with all of my might, but it wont budge, and thought i would ask before i break out the channel locks.
thanks

if you have an older 911...they are held on by a compression ring (mine is an 80). Only way i could get mine off is put a wrench under it about the width of the gear shift lever and beat the heck out of it with a hammer. Don't put your head inline with the **** direction or it will pop you good. If you have a later 911, remove the shift pattern plate (you'll see that it pops out) and there is a screw underneath.

I think the wrench size is 15mm. I covered mine in duct tape to protect the **** and the shift lever. If it's a newer car with a G50 transmission, then there's a set screw underneath the shift pattern on top of the ****.
