So my shifter knob, original, gave up the ghost and broke while I shifted into second the other day.
I am unsure of how I should install the new one. It looks like a press fit, but I broke a new one already trying to tap it on with a rubber mallet.
Should I heat it up and press it on?

Have done mine a couple of times. Yes, it is a press fit.

Warmed mine in a coffee cup filled with hot water, so your instincts are good.

Best
