To replace the gear gaiter on the Fiat Tipo, unclip the gaiter button, detach the plastic, and lift the old gaiter. Once the old gaiter is removed, unclip the frame from the gaiter using a plastic tool on the clips; after removing the old gaiter, take the new gaiter, insert the clips into the stitching holes, and reposition the frame until it clicks into place.

Unclip the button if attached, insert the new gaiter onto the lever, and fasten the button at the centre of the rod where the old one was attached before disassembly.
