If you have the manual transmission .. here is a how to.
1) Full the boot over the shift knob.. the base will remain attatched.
2) You will see a brass collar around the base of the shift knob.
3) Either pry off the collar with a screwdriver or cut it off with a dremel. I just pried mine off.
4) pull the knob and boot straight off.
Easy as 1-2-3... err 1-2-3-4
