How to replace the gear knob on a BMW 3 Series

Model: BMW Serie 3 E91, E90, E92 - Years 2005-2013
Part: Shift knob

Before we can begin, we will have to go and sit in the driver's seat of our BMW 3 Series. Let's start by grabbing the gear knob with both hands. At this point, we will have to forcefully pull the gear knob towards us, so as to be able to disengage and remove it, and we will have finished the disassembly. To mount the new gear knob, all we have to do is push it very hard on the gear lever until it fits. By the time we have completed this step, we will have successfully completed the replacement of the gear knob of a BMW 3 Series.
