The gaiter and gear knob on the Opel Corsa can wear out over time and need replacing. To do this, detach the base of the gaiter and the tray connected to the centre tunnel, pull it upwards, and using a plastic lever, disconnect the reverse linkage.

Lift the white plastic ring, disconnect the connector, and remove the assembly. Using the lever, separate the old gaiter from the base and insert the new one along with the knob, fitting it into the tabs.

Position the knob on the lever, reconnect the linkage, and lower the ring. Insert the connector and position the base with the gaiter in the tunnel.
