Remove the gear knob from an Opel Corsa. Replace the knob if damaged along with the cover gaiter.

Unlock the gaiter frame and lift it upwards. Disconnect the plastics around the knob, turning it left and right until you can remove it from the gear lever.

Fit the new leather gaiter with the clips (if removed), then take the new knob and slide it onto the lever in the centre console until it is secured. Finally, test the movement of the lever in the centre console to ensure the knob is correctly fitted.

At the end of the test, secure the gaiter covering the gear lever.

How to Activate the Disabled TRC on the Toyota Yaris?

As the video clearly shows, disabling or activating the traction control (TRC or ESP) on the Toyota Yaris is very simple. By default, the traction system activates every time the vehicle is started. To disable it, simply press the button depicting a skidding car located in the centre of the vehicle where the controls are, such as the hazard lights and the radio, but near the handbrake. Once disabled, the TRC off light will illuminate on the dashboard. To reactivate it, just press the same button again.
