It is mate, yeah.dub loon wrote:an 8 ball i had in my old mk2 polo lol and is it really as simple as pull "hard"???
And Im running an 8 ball shifter.
Its just a push fit on splines.
Dont pull from the reverse collar though, just the knob itself. (ooo-er!)
The shifter knob on my 340 came off easily, but the one on the 360 was sealed on with glue or some such inconvenience and took the strength and determination of filthyjohn to get off.
If you need a knob pulling, go straight to the proffessionals.
Put it in gear and put your back into it FTW.
