Default Center console shifter handle

Has anyone replaced there shifter handle on the center console by just removing the handle.
I was looking to upgrade my handle to the new Longhorn handle, but Dodge shows to replaced the handle you have to replace the complete shifter assembly.

Where's the set screw?
My handle is all one piece with no set screw showing. Do you have to pop the side chrome off to get at the set screw.

Yes. You have to twist and pull down to pull that chrome cover off to get the screw. As far as I know, it should interchange easily unless dodge did something screwy.

I replaced mine with a leather one from a 2010 Challenger. The real leather feels a lot better than the plastic of the stock one, plus the Challenger/Charger (same **** for both models) is smaller so it fits better in your hand and doesn't eat up as much space from the bin next to it.
