Removing the gear knob

Post by tom_mk5 »

Hiya,

I've just bought a nice Momo gear knob and am wondering how does the original one come off?:)

Cheers

Tom

See the guide section on changing gearknob for MKIV to MKV

- Unclip gaiter at base on centre console
- lift up gaiter (like a skirt over a girls head :oops: )
- Metal clamp just below gear knob (squeezed ring) insert small screwdriver in the crimped section to expand it

Gear shift should now lift off :wink:

God knows how you are gonna fit a momo one but I'm sure someone has done it!!! :lol:
