Remove both of the carpeted side panels (held by one screw on each 
side) and you should then see the fasteners that retain the shifter 
boot.

Let us know what procedure you use.  My lazy man's method for this 
has been simply to shift by gripping the shaft below the shift knob. 
Much better is the procedure of cutting off a bit of the shifter 
shaft end and rethreading it for the knob. Huw Powell describes that 
one and some additional mods here:
