Need to remove the gear knob on an Opel Zafira for replacement? Remove the knob if damaged along with the gaiter if it needs changing. Use a screwdriver to remove the plastic cover on the knob, then take off the gear knob (as shown in the video).

Remove the leather gaiter from the edge of the centre console using a plastic lever. For reassembly: grasp the gaiter and slide it onto the rod on the centre console, then slide on the new knob and tighten it with the spanner on the side with the screw or on top. Secure the gaiter frame above the centre console of the car.

How to Remove the Rear Seat of a Hyundai Tucson?

To remove the rear seat of a Hyundai Tucson, follow these steps. Start by moving the front seats to their most forward position to gain space. Next, locate the release lever on the underside of the rear seat, near the floor. Press this lever down while pulling the seat upwards to unlock it from the anchor pins. Once unlocked, tilt the seat upwards and forwards to remove it from its position. Repeat this process for both sides of the rear seat. Be careful of any electrical cables or components that may be connected to the seat during removal. Once the rear seat is removed, the disassembly is complete.
