i have a 91 civic DX hatch, i lifted it up with a friend and we took out the centre console, and unbolted the bolt holding the original shifter... we are stumped from here as I don't know how to remove the original shifter.. it won't slide under and we've tried excessive force in pushing it down.. am i missing anything?

 

two bolt from underneath

 

Take loose the bolts as numbered:

 

is this your picture?

 

Yes, but you can look at it..

 

can you do me a favor? can you measure the distance between the exhaust and when the car is in 1st gear or neutral? i get exhaust rattle that i need to fix

 

There is probably more or less an inch of clearance there..

 

alright thanks! goin to check tomarrow since i have time then

 

Ahh, thanks alot guys! I got it installed and it feels nice and firm.. too bad the stock shift **** doesn't fit onto it.. gotta buy a new shift ****

Really? What kind of shifter is it?

I've owned 5 different shifters and they all had the same threads as the stocker.

 

It's a Solo short shifter, the end of the shifter has these little round indents instead of screw threading so I'm guessing I need a shift **** with alan keys or something.
