How to Replace the Gear Lever Gaiter on a Fiat Panda 169

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

Replacing the gear lever gaiter is very simple as it is all secured by clips. Start by pulling the gear lever knob upwards with force, remove the spring, and detach the frame at the base of the gaiter that secures it to the centre console. Once the gaiter frame is detached, you can pull it off. Insert the new gaiter and engage the fixing tabs of the frame at the base into their respective slots in the console. Once the gaiter is secured, insert the spring and reposition the knob, aligning it and pressing it down until it clicks into place.
