shift boot removal e30

Hello there, can anyone let me know how to remove the shift boot off of a 1991 318i? I recently asked for any info regarding the shift KNOB, because I recently purchased a 318i and both the knob and boot need replacing. Thanks!

at the bottom of the boot next to the trim piece, squeeze the r an l sides of the boot towards the center. once the are off pull up.
