How to Remove the Gear Knob on a Panda

Model: Fiat Panda 169, MK 2 - Years 2003-2012
Part: Shift knob

Need to replace the damaged gear knob on a Panda? Here’s how to change the gear knob and the protective gaiter. Take the knob in your hands and rotate it left and right until it comes off the gear stick: pull firmly to remove it from the stick. Use a plastic lever to disconnect the frame of the leather gaiter (if it needs replacing). Fit the new leather gaiter with the clips (if removed), then take the new knob and push it onto the stick in the centre console until it locks in place. Finally, test the movement of the stick in the centre console to ensure the knob is securely anchored.
