How to Replace the Gear Knob on the Suzuki Swift

Model: Suzuki Swift Rs41, AZG, MK 5 - Years 2010-2017
Part: Shift knob

In this mini guide for Suzuki Swift owners, we will describe a very simple and effective method that will allow you to replace the gear knob in a few minutes and completely independently. First, turn off the car completely and park it safely. Then, unscrew the gear knob by turning it counterclockwise. At this point, remove the plastic surrounding the leather cover and completely disassemble it as well. Once done, simply reassemble everything (or any new components) in reverse order, and finally, screw on the new gear knob by turning it clockwise.
