Mini Cooper S gear knob replacement

Model: Mini Mini R56, R57, R55 - Years 2007-2014
Part: Shift knob

Let's see in this video tutorial how to remove and replace the gear knob of a Mini Cooper S, in simple steps. First of all we get inside the car and we go to remove the old knob; to do this, we go to grip the knob by lifting it upwards with force, as shown in the video. At this point we can remove the knob together with the gearshift gaiter; once the two components have been separated, let's reassemble the new knob on the old gearshift gaiter. If you want to mount a different model of knob you will need to install an adapter.

How to Install Roof Bars on a Fiat 500X

Learn how to equip your car with universal roof bars. Universal roof bars are used on cars with and without roof rails (fixed bars secured to the car roof). Install the roof bar kit as shown in the video with the bars calibrated according to the width of the car. Position the brackets at both ends of the doors on the car's original roof rails. Once the width of the anchoring brackets is adjusted, tighten the bolts with the butterfly nut (if a lock is present) until fully secured to the roof rails. Finally, apply the safety caps on your Fiat.
