How to Replace the Gear Knob on the Opel Zafira

Model: Vauxhall Zafira Zafira B, A05, MK 2 - Years 2005-2011
Part: Shift knob

Start by removing the chrome trim at the base of the lever. You can use a flathead screwdriver or a plastic lever to avoid damaging the surrounding trim. Next, pry off the white ring that secures the spring for engaging reverse gear. This white ring may be tight, so don't hesitate to apply some force. Then, pull the knob upwards to install the new model of your choice. Finally, retrace the steps described for reassembling the various components.
