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!
