Do you want to replace the manual gear knob on your Ford Focus? In this video, learn how to do it. First, grip the knob with your hands and turn it to the left (as if you were unscrewing anything), then remove it from the gear stick. To install the new knob: take the new knob and screw it onto the stick in the centre console (be careful not to lose the spring on the stick), then tighten the new knob until it is fully threaded onto the lever.

Finally, test the movement of the stick in the centre console to ensure the knob is correctly fitted.
