What's happening is the ribbon cable runs up along the back of the shifter. When you put the shifter on it pushes the cable back down. I was thinking that, okay, the knob has to come apart into two pieces and then I can run the ribbon cable up and inside like the OEM shifter but there doesn't seem to be a way that I can see.

The crystal knob didn't come with any instructions.

Edit: Aaaaaaand now I need a new ribbon cable. FML.
Here’s a link on how to install the VSTAR knob that came with mine.
