      • Access the Paddle Box:
        • Locate the paddle box in the cabin, typically near the driver’s seat and beneath the dashboard.

      • Remove the Old Paddle Box Rubber:
        • Once the paddle box is exposed, identify the rubber component that needs replacement.
        • Use pliers or a flathead screwdriver to gently pry off the old rubber from its seating. Be careful not to damage any other components.
      • Install the New Paddle Box Rubber:
        • Compare the new rubber piece with the old one to ensure it is the correct size and shape.
        • Align the new rubber with its seating and press it firmly into place. Use a small amount of lubricant if necessary to make the installation smoother.
        • Ensure the new rubber is securely fitted and there are no gaps or misalignments.
      • Reassemble and Test:
        • Reattach any panels or covers that were removed during the process.
        • Secure all screws and fasteners tightly.
        • Test the gear shift paddle to ensure it moves smoothly and the new rubber is functioning correctly.
