How to remove the gear knob of the Smart Fortwo

Model: Smart Smart 451 - Years 2007-2015
Part: Shift knob

These short and simple steps will show us how to disassemble and replace the gear lever knob of the Smart Fortwo. First of all, we get into the car and start pulling the gear knob upwards with force, until it comes off and we remove it from the lever; if necessary, we also remove the gear lever boot. At this point, we proceed to install the new gear knob, of the right type, by first reassembling the boot; if necessary, we fix the knob on the boot (using a strap, for example), making sure that the knob is securely attached to the gear lever!
