I recently installed a short-shift kit from Saab-Saviour on my 95 900S...one of the best investments I ever made on this car...and John at Saab Saviour was a gentleman to deal with. This is how I got the knob off...no sawing, cutting, etc, and you get to save the knob. Take a thick piece of rubber, such as a scrap from an old floormat. Wrap the rubber around the shift knob and tighten a good sized pipe-wrench arount the rubber piece. Rotate the pipe wrench while pulling up. Don't have it in reverse when you do this or you'll break the plastic tab that engages the reverse lockout. Put it in neutral. I've done this three times and saved the knobs. It also gives you the opportunity to put another type of knob on there (I used a Momo) if you don't mind not having a reverse lockout.
