I see that over 50 people have looked at this post but noone has made a coment.
Is it possible noone has ever removed these plactic parts for repaint/
there are a lot of these out there that have turned color due to the chemical reactions of the colors.
I've ordered a new plastic piece for my shift rod because I assume I must destroy mine in order to get it of the shift arm.
Once I get the plastic piece off I hope I will be able to get the chrome piece off the end of the arm.
I understand it is pressed on and not screwed on as the door handles are.
I still would like to know what the trick is to get the shift arm off after removing the roll pin.
