Pop the cover for the shift lock override, press the button while simultaneously shifting into L (make sure the car is off and that the e-brake is locked). There should be 2 Phillips head bolts in the backside of the knob. Undo those, and carefully slide up the knob, being careful to hold onto the shifter button, which will spring out & off eventually if you don't secure it. There you go.

That's just it though. There isn't any screws. The damn thing is complete leather and I cant find where I would get it off. Would I have to cut the leather first :/

I don't see why it wouldn't fit. However, you'd have to fabricate some auxilary button/switch for you to operate/disable the overdrive.
