Once the retaining clips have been released, it will be possible to lift the leather boot and detach the knob connected to it from the gear lever. When the old piece has been removed, it will be possible to insert a new gearshift gaiter by fitting the knob on the lever and inserting the clips of the leather cover in its housing.
