Backwards Shift Knob (Pic)

I installed my Hurst perfectly fine but my knobs backwards, I have tightened as hard as possible and the knob sits backwards. I am sure there is an easy fix for this, so i was wondering if anyone could help me...

Here is a pic to show you...

I was thinking that like a washer but i read someone said "There is an opposing nut that will rotate and lock the knob in place. You'll need a big crescent wrench to fit over the flat parts. Position the knob where you want it to face, and then tighten up the opposing nut and you're all good." But I dont get what he is talking about

under the shift knob, theres this spacer thats round andhas 2 flat spots on each side, you loosen the shift knob to where you want it and tighten that spaser up to the knob,
