Video tutorial

In this video, you will learn how to remove the gear knob gaiter on the Opel Corsa. First, you need to unclip it: you will need something sharp like a plastic spatula to unclip it from all sides.

Once unclipped, pull upwards to remove it. To completely take it off, cut the tie wrap that holds it in place with scissors: this will allow you to finally extract it. Now, simply remove the old gaiter from the frame and refit the new gear gaiter, remembering to secure it with a new tie wrap!

If it is still present, you may need to drive for a few miles to ensure it disappears completely from the screen.
