what i did : put it 4th, get one leg over, squat down so each bum cheek is sittin on each seat, and give it an almighty tug. if you twist and pull it helps also - worked for me- if after all that its definately not comin off you could always get your mate stanley to take it off? http://i257.photobucket.com/albums/hh210/rodzd126/stanley-retractable-blade-knife.jpg

If your westie has the same knob as the mk2 vtr then best to cut the lower part off with a stanley knife - the bit which is made of squashy rubber. It's this part that holds the knob on. No great effort to get it off then.
