Model: Ford Ka MK 2 - Years 2008-2016
Part: Shift knob

In today's short tutorial video, you will learn how to remove the gear knob of a second series Ford Ka in simple steps accessible to everyone. First, get inside the car and use a flat screwdriver or something very thin and pointed to remove the upper cover where the gears are indicated: then unscrew the bolt underneath with a socket spanner. At this point, remove the old gear knob by pulling it upwards, and replace it with the new one, inserting it into the socket and screwing the bolt back in; tighten it well to prevent it from moving during driving!
