powershift help - getting the thumb button out!

[AngryScientist]

Before i resort to brute force....

how the hell do you remove the thumb button from these shifters? anyone know?

[Veloo]

Not sure if you can. "Easily" at least.

Are you overhauling? Anything wrong with it?

When I pulled mine apart, I left that section alone after taking a close look. It was working fine so I figured better not indulge my curiosity this time around.
