To remove the gear knob on a Citroen DS3, simply place it in fourth gear and pull the knob upwards with force. As it can be quite stiff to dislodge, use both hands, but all you need to do is pull.

To fit the new part, just press it into place. If you also need to replace the gaiter, press it at the sides and pull it out of its housing, as shown in the video: this is another very simple operation.

Finally, pull it off from the bottom. Good luck!

How to Remove the Rear Seat of a Hyundai Tucson?

To remove the rear seat of a Hyundai Tucson, follow these steps. Start by moving the front seats to their most forward position to gain space. Next, locate the release lever on the underside of the rear seat, near the floor. Press this lever down while pulling the seat upwards to unlock it from the anchor pins. Once unlocked, tilt the seat upwards and forwards to remove it from its position. Repeat this process for both sides of the rear seat. Be careful of any electrical cables or components that may be connected to the seat during removal. Once the rear seat is removed, the disassembly is complete.
