Jesus don't slate the forum.  As a matter of fact yes I have a skunk2 gear knob no problems fitting it. . .  Why? Because I used a 14mm ratchet socket like it says to use.  The thread is a little tight but I just used some wd40.  Adjust the nut until it's at the bottom of the thread.  Screw on the gear knob get aligned right and then tighten nut with a 14mm spanner and hold the knob in other hand keeping it straight.  Easy. . .  works nicely with a short shifter like mine has :) nice weight.
