Whole process took maybe 1/2 hour with me taking all the time I needed and being very careful not to mess anything up. This gives me the wood/cocoa shift knob at the cheaper price of the wood/ebony knob.

One comment I must make is that the difference in color between ebony and cocoa is very little. I think that you could just put the wood/ebony shift knob on and no one would even notice.

Thanks again to those pioneers who share their knowledge with us so that we can all benefit!
I just performed the ebony/wood shifter to cocoa/wood shifter surgery as well. Very easy mod thanks to the instructions/pictures on this forum. I agree the ebony/wood shift knob is almost a perfect match to the cocoa interior.
