To replace the shift knob on a Nissan Altima, use a tool like a screwdriver to pry between the knob and its steel base. This will separate the two parts, allowing you to remove the underlying retaining ring. Once removed, you can completely detach the knob from the top of the shift lever and insert the new replacement part. After inserting it, secure it with the appropriate ring, ensuring it is tightly fastened and does not cause issues during shifting.
