How to replace the gear knob of the Opel Meriva

Model: Vauxhall Meriva MK 2, Meriva B - Years 2010-2017
Part: Shift knob

Today we will explain how to replace the gear knob of the Opel Meriva on your own. To perform this operation, we first need to remove the knob located on the gear lever. To remove the knob, we simply need to rotate it until we hear a click, which will then allow us to remove it by pulling upwards. After removing the knob, we can insert the new one in the same way. After inserting the new knob, we test the operation of the gear lever by engaging the various gears, also testing the reverse gear by pressing the button under the knob. The knob we will insert can be a generic model.
