To replace the gear knob on a Subaru Forester, first detach the chrome cover located at the base of the knob using a tool like a screwdriver. Once the chrome has been removed, you can disconnect the underlying clip, allowing the knob to be completely pulled off the top of the gear lever.

After removing the old knob, insert a new one and secure it with the corresponding clip. Once the clip is in place, you can also reposition the chrome part.
