Bought a new 2010 CX-9, and in the process of installing the ipod integration module. I am stuck at the shift **** removal. I released the lower chrome ring at the bottom of the ****, it appears that I just have to pull it off the shaft, but it won't budge. Am I supposed to pull it hard in order to get it off the shaft? Thanks.

 

you have to turned the whole **** to remove.
