carefully pop out the plastic push button. Perhaps use a screwdriver (flathead) with protection. Then you take out the spring & rubber stopper. Then you need a deep socket to remove the nut. cant remember what size though. Then gear knob is removed.
I did this with my KH to install a nardi issue but the socket size escapes me at the moment

yeah it's pretty easy. Getting the plastic button out without scratching it can be tricky but use a bit of muscle. You could also use long nose pliers to get the nut out but a deep socket with correct size is obviously quicker. First time I got the nut out with pliers but then went out to get a socket

or you can use two knives,,,,push down either side of the push button and lever /pull it back up... screwdriver may be too thick....

yep that will work too. I had a rather small screw driver but the above will work just as well and reduce the risk of damage
