About this deal

The chrome buttons hide the two tightening bolts in step 8. They are a bugger to put in as they feel they may break as it's not clear where they fit in.

The transmission seal that was leaking is the "shift shaft" that bottom shift cable coupler attaches to.Easy to install ---- Lever Gaiter Ring is easy to install, no need for complex operation, no additional tools or equipment, save time and effort, easy to use Again this feels a bit rough when you're trying to remove it. The gaiter and chrome surround that are fixed to the car are fixed by a number of clips. You can't get to these to release them but they are quite sturdy. I pulled lightly on one side to release the first halt then pulled round the edges. Examples below of both parts. There are two clips on each, and the two holes/slots are hidden by the leather cover. They are however near the top of the gear knob when looking at the hole which the chrome button fits into. It’s a case of putting the button in at an angle, clips first, to find them, then when you have located the slots (hidden by leather!) levelling the clip, wiggling and pushing until it clips in. Excellent Compatibility】This replacement 5 speed shift knob is specially designed for 2003-2012 for fiat Panda. for fiat 500 500C 2007-2013. It's a good choice if you want to change the old shift knob.

In the end I had to use two screw drivers and leaver it off, summoning the power of Courtney loves rage to detach it. I knew I wasn't going to reuse it so it did get a bit damaged coming off but I couldn't see how you could safely remove it without at least 4 screw drivers an extra pair of hands and a bag full of patience!.Remember you dont need to replace the original fixing bolt it was only to secure the previous knob. The new knob uses two allen tighten bolts to secure it. All the trans oil had been mopped up by the time I took the photos, but it's still obvious where it was flowing from, and how it then coats the driver side axle boot & seal, making you incorrectly think you had an axle seal leak.

I went for the Ivory Leather official gear knob option. It is quite a tight fit to get it on. So a bit of patience you just wiggle the chrome gear arm until the new leather gaiter is on the chrome arm. Then put the chrome surround onto the new gaiter at the bottom. This is pretty easy just unclip from the old one and match to the new one ensuring all clips are in place. You should now have a newly gaitered chrome gear arm with the chrome base attached

I like to think I am however quite handy and thought this guide may be of use. Original size design ---- Lever Gaiter Ring uses the original size design, each material is professional, each process is strictly inspected to ensure the long-term service life of the product In the instructions is looks simple, screw driver, lever it off and there you go. In reality I found the gear cap (bit with numbers on) is held on by 4 clip joints to the rubber sleeve attached to it. I spent a good 20 mins trying to patiently remove it in tact.
