Part: Shift knob

In this short video tutorial, learn how to remove the gear knob from a Nissan Qashqai: the operation is quite simple and does not require any special tools. To remove the gear knob, first, get inside the car: to facilitate the operation, heat the area around the gear knob with a heat gun to soften the adhesive underneath; then, with considerable force, try to pull the knob upwards, as shown in the video.
