Part: Shift knob

Want to replace the gear knob on your Fiat Panda? Follow these steps: first, take the knob in your hands and twist it left and right until it comes off the gear stick.

For reassembly: fit the new leather gaiter with the clips (if removed), then take the new knob and slide it onto the stick in the centre console, tightening the new knob until it is secure on the stick. Finally, test the movement of the stick in the centre console to ensure the knob is correctly fitted.
