In this video we can see how to change the knob and gear shift boot on a Kia Sportage MK4: we can find the leather knob and boot, for example on E-Bay with the code 166751745950 at the price of 40.99 euros, with free delivery. First, we need to put the lever in neutral position, then we need to lever the frame around the boot, in order to remove it from its housing.

When it is free, then we pull the knob towards us with force, in order to remove the knob and boot in one go, so that the shaft remains bare. In this way we can place the new boot and knob in its place.

To remove the rear seat of a Hyundai Tucson, follow these steps. Start by moving the front seats to their most forward position to gain space.

Once unlocked, tilt the seat upwards and forwards to remove it from its position. Repeat this process for both sides of the rear seat.
