How do you remove the cylindrical shaped thing from the ball? Does it just pull off or is there a circlip (I couldn't see one) or something that needs to be removed first? Are there replacement cylindrical things for sale anywhere?

Just grab it with a vise grip and pull. You're going to replace it anyway right?

Fit an open wrench the size of the ball over that cylinder and hit the wrench with the hammer (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smash.gif)

That cup looks fine to me, but I don't think I've ever seen a shift console that trashed ............................

Good. As long as you have a workable one, all is well.
