I was wandering how i could take the stock shift **** out so i can replace em with a different type. I realized that it doesnt easily come out like toher Hondas. Im not to confident with trying different ways of taking it out because i dont wana break anything so i was wandering if someone would be kind enough to tell me HOW TO and such. By the way...iSEARCHED.

Thanks.

 

pretty easy...there is a clip at bottom of shift ****..it unclips by pressing it on both sides..that should release the **** from the boot...then unscrew the ****...it will seen like it takes forever...but it will come off...yah had to do it...when i replaced my boot with a type r 1...shouldnt take more than 15 mins...

 

Yep just unscrews.

 

Did anyone elses boost look like **** after? I just changed both, just a heads up in might look like *** with the stock boot.

 

thats y u change the boot too...i got an ek9 boot n it looks fine with my ****

 

yah it will look gay...just get a type r one...not that hard to modify so that it will fit..

 

Which side are the clips located?? are they vertically or horizontally?? some pics would probably help me locate them better

 

i just took some vise grips and gripped the stock one. it took some elbow grease and ruined the stock one but i got it out
then the installaion for the aftermarketone is easy as long as you have the right boot.

 

Its its stock then just grab really tight below the **** (on the boot) and pull down at an angle. Kind of like prying it off with your hand.

Once it comes off you're going to go "Oh....****, that was easy"

 

pull down at where the **** ends, grip it with some force, and pull it down at an angle. then unscrew the ****. it will seem as though it never stops unscrewing.

learn by doing.

 

vertically--front to back

 

Can someone help me with removing the factory boot?

 

There are two screws holding it to the console.
