The knob itself does come of quite easily. I followed those instructions on the YouTube link I previously posted.
Granted, I didn't remove the surround or gator, but when I put gearstick into neutral and pressed in the reverse lock catch, I simply gave the gear knob a slight twist left and right - along with pulling upwards at the same time and the knob came off the gearstick with little effort. It also clicked back into place easily too.
I'm sure once you remove the surround and gator, you'll have no problems replacing it.
