Instructions:
Removal:
Start by supporting the car on a lift, or 4 jack stands on a level surface enough to
fit under the car as you will have to remove the shifter from the bottom of the car.
From inside the car start by removing the factory shift knob. This requires some
effort but you need to pull straight up on the knob with a slight twisting action to release
it from the clip inside. See Figure #1
Figure 1: removing knob
Once the shift knob has been removed you can now remove the lower shifter trim
plate from the car. Again this piece is held in with small GM clips. You may find it
easier to use a small flat blade screw driver, or clip removal tool. See figures 2a and 2b.
Figures 2a and 2b: removing trim panel
With the trim panel up, becareful of the gage package wiring. There should be
enough wiring there to allow this panel to be laid over to the side out of the way. Next
you will be removing the lower shift boot from the transmission tunnel. These are held
down with four Philips head screws. See figures 3a and 3b.

Once the boot has been removed, you will see the shifter and the weather boot
under as shown below

Now you will need to access the bottom side of the car to remove the shift linkage
from the transmission. First part you need to find the shifter box which is located just aft
of the transmission and above the first driveshaft connection. You will see a black rubber
boot covering the assembly. This will need to be pulled down and free so you can unhook the rod from the lever. The boot will stay on the car as it is wrapped around the rod
going to the transmission. See figures 5a and 5b for this location and boot removal.
