Default How do you remove the gear knob

As above,I have now managed to remove the console but I cant get the gear knob off does it pull off or twist as it doesn't seem to want to do either

matt 2 screws if you look inside the DIN. 2 screws where the ash tray is,1 under the window switchs. then you may or may not have the 2 fastners in the footwell push the centres in and they come out this side then you can resue them after . An i think the nob is screwed as i have a monte one which is held on with a hex bolt..

if you can't work it out after that you know what you can do
