Replacement of the Gear Knob and Gaiter

Model: Fiat 500 312 - Years 2007-2024
Part: Shift knob

Who hasn't personalised their car in their youth? Here’s a fun accessory that is easy to install. Obtain the kit and proceed as follows: use a flathead screwdriver to pry between the plastic of the knob and the support until you remove the cover. Unscrew the nut that secures the knob to the gear lever with a wrench. Carefully remove the knob and slide off the gaiter covering the gear lever. Retrieve the retaining spring at the base of the old gaiter and fit it onto the new one. Refit the gaiter onto the support and secure the end to the gear lever. Install the new knob, which will be fixed to the gear lever using an Allen key and a threaded bolt.
