Its attached to the leather gaitor... the plastic surround unclips off the centre console, pull it up over the knob and you'll see a brass circlip that you have to open up a bit with pliers or a screwdriver. Once the clip is open enough the knob just pulls off.

Then just slide the new knob on and close up the circlip to fix it in place.
