Need to replace the gear gaiter on a Fiat Panda? Here’s how to remove the damaged gaiter from the top of the gear lever. Remove the gear knob from the gear lever (grasp the knob and pull it off the lever), then use a plastic lever to detach the clips securing the gaiter frame.

Remove the leather gaiter from the edge of the centre tunnel. For reassembly, position the gaiter onto the lever on the centre tunnel, then fit the new gear knob and secure it onto the gear lever.

Ensure all parts related to the gear gaiter are properly fitted.
