w140 shiftknob changeout - How is it done?

[brianpdx]

Hello,

Want to upgrade my OEM leather shiftknob to all wood handle version on my 140 series.

Can this be done without having to remove the engine... just kidding.

The wood center console is two pieces. Can this be done without having to remove the top (radio) piece and by only having to remove the bottom piece where the shifter is located? And.... how is it done.

I changed one on a 124 series which was simple, don't have a clue as to how to change this one.

Any help/suggestions much appreciated.

Thanks,

BJ
