Using a small flat screwdriver or a small plastic wedge, pry in the gap of the upper plate (the one with the gear markings) and remove it. Once done, unscrew the 10 mm bolt that is now accessible. Now gently pull the gear gaiter from the base, either by hand or with the help of the plastic wedge.

Once you have removed the gaiter, you can cut the clip and remove the old gear knob. Insert the new one you have selected and purchased, proceeding in reverse order by fitting the gaiter back to the base and then mounting the knob.

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.
