Yes, after using a butterknife of all things and I'm using an Anarchy Motive shift knob from my old STI thats a weighted white tear drop style knob. Only thing is it goes over the collar why Im not too thrilled about so I may just order a Type R specific knob.
Glad to hear it! Now I wonder if I would have issues replacing it...sweet updates when you get it!

Yes it worked out for him- just got a message about 1hr ago of complete success. I'll let @Ultimateone fill-in the details.

The red ring is a bitch to remove just a warning for anyone else out there attempting to make the shifter upgrade.
Awesome!!! Man I'm glad it was easy for me...I easily give up in fear of breaking shit....I couldn't even install those OEM clear door handle protectors so that video was scrapped lolol cheers fam

Ya in my mind I knew this was a one-way trip knowing I wasn't going back to that frozen popsicle OEM shifter so if I was going to damage the red ring then so be it. This Raceseng wrapped in leather feels so much better in the hands now.

THOR LEND ME STRENGTH!!!

Finally after 2.5 hours inside the car taking every idea I can think of I just muscled the damn thing of. I wrapped the entire area with painters tape and mustered all my mortal strength. It finally gave way.

This is what it looks like after I was able to free it from its bonds.

Now comes the Raceseng knob. After all this I’m going to go and treat myself to a late lunch burrito at the taqueria down the street!!!
I meant to get a picture earlier, but from what I see in the picture, nothing looks broken. I do see a scratch or two, but those would be superficial. This is what mine looks like right now.

I got around to installing my rpf1’s , they look great. They are very light , roughly 10 pounds per corner. Unfortunately I can’t drive it , until my ecu gets back from hondata. But overall they are great. Topped it all off with OEM Honda center caps..
What year center caps do you order for those ? Im thinking of running the same set up

If you’re talking those anti-scratch guards, not the easiest to get flat and bubble free.
