I popped the cap off (thanks Tate), put a deep socket on the nut, grabbed
the shifter with a pipe wrench (with a piece of rubber against the shifter
so it wouldn't slip and scratch the paint) and it eventually unscrewed. Its
hard to initially break it free, it felt like they used Lock-tite or
something. But, after 2 years, it DOES come off!
