So I went ahead and replaced my shift knob and boot collar and documented some of it.
What you need:
Plastic pry tool (putty knife works)
Phillips screwdriver
I recommend you read the Manual on how to install the wireless charging kit to remove the center console.

Anyways. To remove the stock knob, pinch at the sides of the boot under the collar and pull down.
Unscrew the knob.
Pull up the two side center console arm rest. They're held on by four clips.
Next use your plastic pry tool to loosen the two side center console pieces. (I didn't bother to remove them all the way)
The boot section is held on by two screws and 4 tabs. Remove the two screws.
Pull up on the for tabs and the center section should come up. Carefully unclip the wires at the bottom.
Invert the shift boot and cut the zip tie holding on the stock retainer.
Add your new shift boot retainer, and zip tie in place. And put the console back together.
