Fortunately, replacing the gear knob on a car is one of the simplest DIY tasks. Over time, the gear knob tends to wear out, fade, or even break, necessitating its replacement.

It is really easy; just grip it with your hands and unscrew it to remove it from the gear lever, then remove the covering boot attached to it. Once done, attach the new boot to the new knob and screw it onto the gear lever. Job perfectly completed.
