Removing shifters
 

I have a 91 YJ and am having trouble removing the shifters for a
transmission removal. Can anyone throw me some hints that I'm missing?
I have tried to push and turn ccw the retainer but it is not going.
Can I remove the 4 bolts holding the whole retainer housing and remove
that without totally messing it up? Thanks

That's how I do it. I take the whole top plate off.
