How to replace the gear knob of the 2007 Citroën C3

Model: Citroen C3 FC, FN - Years 2002-2009
Part: Shift knob

Today we will explain how to replace the gear knob of the 2007 Citroen C3. We remove the plastic base located on the bottom of the gear lever boot, in doing so we can lift the boot and release the metal clip that locks the knob and boot on the gear lever. After removing the clip, we slide off the boot and by rotating it to the right and left we remove the knob. We insert the new boot into the gear lever and insert the new knob, we lock the base with a new metal clamp and insert the plastic cover inside the lower dashboard. We start the car and test the gear lever by shifting gears.
