How to replace the gear knob of the Saab 9-3.

Model: Saab 9 3 MK 2 - Years 2002-2014
Part: Shift knob

The replacement of the gear knob in your Saab 9-3 second series (year 2002-2014) is a very simple operation. First, make sure you have a perfectly compatible new knob. Then, remove the old knob by pulling it upwards with force. Next, install the new knob and you're done. Check for any lateral play and personally test the correct functioning by making a few test shifts. If there are any abnormal movements, don't worry, you can simply remove and reinstall it again.
