Replacement of Gear Knob

Model: Ford Focus MK 1 - Years 1998-2004
Part: Shift knob

It is very easy to find aftermarket gear knobs with attractive designs and ergonomic shapes. The original knob is simply screwed onto the gear lever: to remove it, just unscrew it. The new knob will need to be secured using screws located at the bottom, which are then concealed by a collar. First, place the collar onto the gear lever, screw the plastic bush onto the thread of the lever, insert the new knob, align it correctly, and tighten the screws at the bottom to secure it; finally, apply the collar.

How to Open the Bonnet on the Lancia Y

To open the bonnet on this vehicle, follow these simple instructions: first, open the driver's door and locate the lever positioned just below the dashboard, marked with an image of the vehicle with the bonnet open. Pull this lever towards you until you hear a "click" indicating the bonnet is released. Next, exit the cabin and stand in front of the bonnet to disengage the safety catch and complete the opening.
