How to change the gear shift knob of the Volkswagen Golf GTI

Model: Volkswagen Golf Golf VII, MK 7, Golf 7 - Years 2012-2019
Part: Shift knob

The following steps will show us the process of disassembling and replacing the automatic transmission knob and boot of the Volkswagen Golf GTI. First, we get into the car and begin to detach and remove the cover and boot from the base; then we detach the small metal clip located between the boot and the knob, as shown in the video. At this point, we pull everything upwards to remove the components, replacing the gear knob with the new one; we insert the boot first and then the knob on the lever, locking everything in place with the appropriate clip!

How to change the time on a Toyota Yaris

In this video we see how to change the time on a Toyota Yaris, specifically when it comes to switching from daylight saving time to standard time and vice versa. We go to the multifunction screen and press "settings": from there we go to press the clock, simply click on daylight saving time, and the clock will change the time for us, without doing anything else. All we want to do is just adjust the time format to 12 or 24 hours, as is customary in the area where we live: for example in Anglo-Saxon countries it is common to set the time to 12 hours, while in the European Union it is normally set to 24 hours.
