Replacement of the knob and shift boot of the Opel Astra.

Model: Vauxhall Astra Astra H - Years 2004-2010
Part: Shift knob

Today's instructions will show us how to disassemble and replace the knob and the gear shift boot of the Opel Astra, in simple steps. First, we get into the car and start by removing the plastic cover at the base of the boot; then we forcefully detach the gear knob by pulling it upwards, as shown in the video. At this point, we separate the knob from the boot, replacing the components with new ones if necessary; we assemble the two pieces to be installed on the gear shift lever, correctly fixing the knob and the boot!

How to Remove the Mirror Cap on a Toyota Auris

How to proceed with the removal of the mirror cap on a Toyota Auris? Use a plastic lever to detach the mirror cap and the mirror itself. Pry until the cover comes off the mirror (this operation is very delicate as it may break). Once the piece is removed, take out the side indicator (for replacement), and you can replace it with the new one. Refit the new mirror cover by inserting it into the mirror and securing the plastic with the appropriate clips. Check the correct functioning of the part.
