    I just put mine on the other day. I had to pull little harder than I expected to get the stock knobs off. I pulled hard enough that it felt like I might hurt or break something but it turned out to be fine. There is nothing to break or mess up if you just pull them straight off. I'm sure you will be glad you ordered these and got rid of the hobbit knobs that came with the stock radio.

    Yeah people always like to chime in with their smart remarks. Another thing I noticed was when I went to put one of the new knobs on it wouldn't go all the way on. There ended up being a small chunk of metal inside leftover from the machining process. I fished it out with the supplied Allen wrench, it went on perfect and flush after that though. Again these are a huge improvement if you use your radio knobs at all.

    Great customer service from Hondo Garage!!! I made an error in my order and had knobs that didn't fit my premium radio. Called Hondo and they immediately shipped me correct ones and took me at my word that I would others back. All is well. The knobs fit perfect and I really like hem. Much better feel and looks.

    Installed my @wileydavis Hondo premium radio knobs along with a unholey dash mount, ram balls, ram arm, and perfect squeeze phone mount.

    Absolutely fantastic product and amazing customer service. The phone mount is rock solid and it's unbelievable that these knobs aren't the stock ones, 110% better.

    It's pretty amazing how big of an improvement these knobs are when compared to the crappy stock ones which aren't deep enough to grab and too slick when you do finally get ahold of them.

    What's the likelihood of getting a sticker if we were one of the ones who were deprived in our orders?

    I like stickers.
