How to Replace the Gear Knob in the Chevrolet Spark?

Model: Chevrolet Spark M300, MK 1 - Years 2009-2016
Part: Shift knob

As seen in this tutorial, replacing the gear knob in the Chevrolet Spark is a very simple and quick operation. First, go inside the cabin, then unclip the gaiter from the base by prying along the entire perimeter. Once done, cut the fastening clip of the gaiter to the knob, grasp the knob and twist it forcefully in both directions until it completely separates from the shaft. At this point, simply attach the gaiter to the new knob with a new clip and reassemble everything by following the reverse procedure.
