I also figured if the pipe cutter didn't work, I could finish it off with the dremel. It didn't really take much at all for the snap ring to work. I also test fitted the snap ring before putting the knob back on. I did this all without even removing the center console cover or shift boot. Just got a drop cloth and cut a hole in the middle for the shaft to go through. Then just made sure the steering wheel and radio bezel were covered well. If I did it again, I'd get some blue painters tape and tape the drop cloth to the shaft to make it a tight fit. I still need to clean the boot from all the dust. |
