How to Replace the Gear Knob on a Fiat Punto Van

Model: Fiat Punto MK 2, 188 - Years 1999-2011

The procedure to replace the gear knob on a Fiat Punto Van is quite simple and suitable for beginners. The only thing to pay attention to is the replacement part you purchase. This car has a "syringe" reverse gear, meaning the hook is pulled up to engage the gear, so you need to buy a knob that covers the spring up to the leather gaiter. After this clarification and having purchased your replacement, the procedure involves pulling upwards on the old knob, being careful as the spring of the hook will spring off. Once done, attach the adapter included in your replacement package and screw on the new knob.
