I have searched this site on how to do this but i can only find it for camaros and i dunno if its different at all.

So basicly the leather on my automatic shift **** has a nice hole in it that seemed to come out of no where So 2 things...how do i get this old one off so i can put a different one on...and where can i buy an OEM replacement or a direct fit aftermarket one.

Thanks guys

 

The shift **** is attached with a u-shaped clip located in front of the shifter, you will probably only find a stock replacement by placing an ad looking for one, browsing the sponsor list, or searching e-bay.

 

X2. Also alot of floorshift GM models attach the same way. A GrandPrix is a polular one, S-sereis, J-bodies, Fieros, Some Olds, Etc

 

Put the shift lever in 1st gear and you'll be able to look over the top of it to see the slot where the U-shaped clip is licated. Use a small flat blade screwdriver to get the clip out. Once the clip is out the **** slides right off the lever.

Thank you all for the quick reply and advice it was much appreciated.

Just one more dumb question...is there any specific way to put the clip back in. So i dont damage it

 

The 'U' shaped clip only goes in & comes out one way. Also if you lose it, you can make another one out of a paperclip. Not a very high tech part.

 

Here's where you can get a new handle:

And if you lose or damage your clip during the process:
