How to Replace the Gear Knob on an Opel Corsa

Model: Vauxhall Corsa Corsa D - Years 2006-2014
Part: Shift knob

To replace the gear knob on an Opel Corsa, detach the clips at the base of the gear gaiter so that it can be fully lifted. Once the gaiter is lifted, you will have access to the clip underneath that connects the knob to the gaiter: by removing this clip, you can completely detach the knob from its housing and replace it with a new spare part. The new knob should be secured to the leather covering with its clip and attached to the end of the gear lever.
