Shift **** Removal

I changing the lens on my dash gauges and trying to get trim piece off that that the shifter goes through. It is an automatic. How does it come off? I read that you take the center parts out (which I did) and unscrew it but, even with a gentle twist with channel locks, the **** won't unscrew.
