it's done by taking off the rubber on the knob itself, read up and search for more info. Colors varied in some years, + there are how to's on it here or on Grandamgt.com

99-00 have the blue knobs, and SOME 01's have 'em too. ALL 02+ have white knobs under the rubber. If you think that you might not like it, be careful taking them off. (yes they CAN go back on if you are extra careful and don't stretch or rip them.)

when you pull off the knob, unhook the teeth around the edges and roll them off. Just be careful. This is by far the cheapest and easiest thing to do to the alero.

could also find someone who has them already peeled and wants to go back to stock, then trade.

i took the rubber off my 99 and it looked sweet. but then i traded it for an 04 and i didn't have a chance to switch them with the new one. so now i'm stuck with the ones that you can't clear.
