Great thread! Convinced me to never take my car's shift **** off.
I did at one time make a custom skirt out of yellow leather and clipped it over the existing boot. I used coathanger wire to form a hoop that snapped into the shifter well right over the original skirt. Looks great, has been very durable and is completely reversible without the use of tools.

Necro-ing this thread: does the shifter need to be in neutral?
I have a Tip with the rosewood shifter. Shift button off (easy). No matter how much I pull I can’t get the shift **** off.
No set screw. Applied some (mild) heat with a hairdryer for a couple of minutes too. No luck.

Agreed, so don’t see how neutral matters and it wasn’t mentioned in another post. I think it’s just a stubborn press fit. Try my lever solution, and save yourself a punch in the chin. Ask me how I know, ha.
