Sorry, no pics. Wife and kid are out of town and took the camera I know how to use.
Phone takes crappy pics.
Anyhoo, got my knob off.
Tugged gently on my bag, I mean the boot, evenly all around.
The entire trim piece with the hazard and lock buttons came out.
What's that in there? Pretzels? Shmeesh. The previous owner ...
Pushed the boot ring gently out of the larger trim ring from the bottom and unplugged the connector.

On a whim, before getting a pillow and straddling 4th gear, while sitting in the driver's seat, gave the knob a wiggle and yank, and it came right off. I guess some are tighter than others.
Mine's old, an apparently kinda floppy.

Now comes the fun of swapping the boot ring to the other knob.
