I'm pretty sure its the kind of knob that just pulls straight off with like a crescent or half moon shape end. Just to be safe i'd turn the lights on so you can clamp a pair of vice grips on the shaft to make sure you don't rip out the switch. So if you've taken off the (original) radio knobs before, i think it should be similar to that. There may be some sort of locktite in it however so like i said use the vice grips to keep from ruining the switch.
