I had read that too, about needing to cut the knob off and that it's glued on.
That turned out to be false. Once the unit was out of the car we were able to use a mallet and a drift ( screw driver) to knock the knob off the shifter. It came off with the boot and reverse lock out tube in 1 piece.
This left the exposed splined shaft.
I just pressed it onto the new shift lever once it was all in the car.
I suppose if you were going to replace the knob itself it might be different? But I as able to re-use mine this way.
