1999 Ford Mustang: How do I change the shift knob?

I bought a 1999 Ford Mustang a while back and the previous owner had put a knob on the shifter that has lights and stuff - not really my style. When I bought the car, it came with the original shifter knob in the glove box, but I cannot seem to figure out how to take the current one off and replace it with the original. I have pulled up on it, tried to twist it off, tried to push down and twist... Does anyone know how to do this? Thanks.|||If it%26#039;s a manual transmission, simply lift UPWARD on the shift boot and bezel assembly, and it will snap out. Don%26#039;t forget to disconnect the wiring connector to the cigar lighter. Get a 10mm wrench to remove the to bolts that secure the shift lever to the shifter base. Remove everything as an assembly and work with it out of the vehicle. You may need to use two wrenches to loosen the aftermarket knob. The orginal knob simply screws onto the lever. Hope this helps.|||you should be able to just twist it off, they may haev tightened it on hard, so you might have to break out the tools to get it to move. good luck|||Pull up extremely hard , but watch your nose and eyes , You could hit yourself (thats how much strength it takes to get off)|||Take a look and see if there is an allen set screw that is holding the knob in position. Loosen the set screw and unscrew it.
