Default 370z shift knob question

i was just wondering is there a difference between the 350z shift knob and a 370z shift knob. If i want to change the shift knob on my 370 to a 350 one would it fit? i saw some after market nismo shift knobs at a auto shop but i didnt know if it would fit. And also the dealer has some but their for 350 so im just wondering if there is a size difference between them or are they both the same?

From what i'm hearing, the 350 knobs are the same as the 370... That's the impression that im getting.

Unfortunately it's almost impossible to remove the stock knob without serious damage, they soaked it in threadlock. Unlike my G35 where the knob used to just unscrew by itself.
