I need to remove my side panel for some mods and need to remove the shifter to get the panel all the way out. How do I get the shifter off the side panel? Do I have to take the handle off first?

If its the Quicksilver 3000, pry off the center pushbutton. Pry from both side evenly or you will break it. (approx $3 from dealer). There is a recessed hex nut that you remove with a socket. That takes the cover off and exposes the screws that hold it to the panel.
There are two versions of the 3000, I just went through this on one of my customers boats! http://www.donzi.net/forums/showthread.php?t=61947

Thanks guys. I got it but of course I broke the neutral button, sheared the head off trying to pull it out. :frown:
I'll check your site MOP for the part. Mine is a 2002 BTW.
