How to remove handbrake button

I have changed my handbrake handle, but can't for the life of me, get the button off the end.

Any tips on removing it, and replacing it with another shiny button?

I replaced mine a couple of weeks ago. It just unscrewed - no trick to it (could be tight though). I believe the NBs are the same.

I just used one of those rubber mats that you use for opening jars and bottles, etc. Grab and unscrew.

Thanks guys. :D
All done.. :D :D
By the way, when sitting in the car, it's right turn to loosen and left to tighten.

Theres a screw that holds the 2 halves together, undo and then they should pull apart with a little coaxing, twisting and sheer bute force if required.
