Do you want to replace the automatic gear knob? Here’s how to do it on a Kia Soul. Hold the knob and rotate it left and right until you remove it from the gear stick (pull firmly). Use a plastic lever to detach the trim covering the gear stick (if replacing).

For reassembly, take the new knob and screw it onto the stick in the centre console until fully secured. Finally, test the movement of the stick in the centre console to ensure the knob is correctly fitted.

Replace the gear knob with one of the same size.
