You don't actually need to remove the gearnob Mark - you can separate the gaiter from the chrome ring and squeeze the SMG gaiter leather boot and the plastic ring through the chrome SMG gear housing and pull up and out of the way. The plastic ring on the SMG gaiter is very strong so it won't break - just squeez it enough to feed through the Chrome ring.
