rossk Posted October 11, 2015 Share Posted October 11, 2015 Just ordered a new gear knob and gaiter. How do i remove the gaiter on my glanza?Does it just pull out or?Cheers Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Fozzie Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 You need to undo the four cross-head screws on the console that sits around the handbrake - slide the seats right forward to do the back ones and then right back to do the fronts. Then just give it a tug upwards and it lifts out. There's a couple clips around the base of the centre console (in front of the gear stick) - undo these by pressing in the centre and pulling them out. Then remove the trim around the heater controls and CD player by just giving it a firm pull. I think then the trim around the gearstick should just lift off. Gear knob comes off by just unscrewing, but it might be quite firm. Then remove the plastic trim around it, unclip the old gaiter from underneath, and fit your new one. Reassemble everything in the opposite order! (and breathe) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Cammy R Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 Push the gear knob down and unscrew if it doesn't come off right away Quote Link to post Share on other sites
