Want to install Hurst knob on stock ZL1 shifter

[chiefsalami]

Has anyone done this or know if it's even possible? I'm looking to install a Hurst (or Hurst-style) white cue-ball shift knob on the factory M6 shifter in my ZL1. I want to leave the stock shift assembly and the stock boot (I have the suede package, BTW) and ONLY replace the knob.

Any ideas?

Here is an option. This is what I did.

That looks awesome! Quite a bit of work though...

However, I've been reading that the ZL1 has a different shift knob and that it doesn't come off like the M6 one on the other cars. Also, the boot has a ring that apparently connects up to the bottom of the knob itself. Do you know anything about this?

Thanks so much for sharing.

I had no problem. Hurst shifter video shows how to
remove the console/gauge panel. Several have threaded
since I did my write-up. Really not hard.

I have no idea about the boot ring connecting to the bottom of the knob.
My 2010 wasn't like that.
