    I bought a 328 shift knob from a dealership to replace my stock 308 QV 'Q-BALL' shift knob. Yes, I'm weird. I liked the orange inlay better. Besides, the 328 knob was way cheaper than anything MOMO or aftermarket Titanium millers are offering.....with all of the OEM Mojo. And it came in a Yellow Ferrari box that was blessed by the Pope.

    Anyway, how do you remove the stock knob? This is probably dead-easy to answer for most of you.....I thought I should ask knowledgable sources before I just start yanking on my stock knob.


    Wait, let me rephrase that last sentence....???

    There's a nut under the knob. Hold the knob with one hand and loosen the nut with the other.

    I had a carbon fiber knob made for mine and some other club members, sized larger than the stock 308/328/348 knob. The size matches the larger knobs on the 355 and 360's, and fits the hand better.

    I've still got a couple of extra; if anyone is interested, PM me.
