Its easy to pop off the trim piece at the base...that way to can get at the aformentioned rubber fastener. You can then slide the boot downand twist off the knob. Reinstallation of a different knob will take a little rigging to re-attach the boot. I know I'm talking in generalities...so PM if you need details.

Right, but the only thing that I thught I remembered when I changed both my boot and knob was that the silver trim was actually part of the boot. All the the knobs have are the 2 male end clips (to attach to the boot), and the threads for the knob to screw onto the shifter.
