Video tutorial

In this video, you will see how to change the gear knob on a Peugeot 307: first, remove the plastic trims from the centre console around the knob and gaiter to allow for easier access. These components are press-fit, so simply pull them towards you to remove.

Then, pulling firmly on the knob, remove both the knob and the gaiter from the gear lever. Separate the gaiter from the knob by loosening the ring inside and then replace it with the new knob, which you can find on Amazon with code B0171F8SX2 for £10.89, with free delivery for Prime customers.

Secure it with a tie wrap; if you also want to replace the gaiter, you will find the complete kit on Amazon with code B0811D4XL3 for £13.99, also with free delivery for Prime customers. At this point, simply insert the knob onto the gear lever and refit the gaiter, reassembling the parts you removed from the console, and the job is complete.
