Shift **** Removal

This is a simple question, but I can't figure out how to remove the shift **** from the 5 speed shifters that were in the firebirds. Do they thread on or are they glued?

It just unscrews, although I think it has some kind of thread locker on it from the factory. With enough force, it should come right off.
