How to replace the gear knob of the Fiat 500?

Model: Fiat 500 312 - Years 2007-2021
Part: Shift knob

To replace the gear knob of the Fiat 500, loosen the small screw located at the back of the knob: once this is unscrewed, you can pull off the knob and optionally remove the corresponding leather gaiter. To remove it, detach the clip that connects the gaiter to the gear lever and unclip the internal clips at the base of the gaiter. Then, it can be completely removed, and you can insert a new one, securing the clips at the base of the gaiter and fastening the knob with the appropriate screw.
