How do I replace a Honda Accord automatic shift knob?
The leather on my 2007 Accord shift knob was worn out, so I bought a replacement online. How can I replace my Accord’s shift knob?

Great question! It doesn’t take long to replace a
Honda Accord
automatic shift knob, with the whole process taking under 30 minutes. Here’s how you do it:- Shut off your vehicle and place the transmission selector in neutral. Make sure to engage the parking brake as well.
- Use a flathead screwdriver to remove the plastic cover surrounding the shift knob. Once you remove this, the screws to remove the knob will be visible.
- Use a Phillips screwdriver to remove the screws and pull up the shift knob. It may take some jiggling to loosen.
- Place the new shift knob in place of the old one. Make sure the button to unlock the shifter is facing towards the dashboard.
- Reinsert the two screws you removed and tighten them into place. Replace the plastic cover and snap it into place.
Just like that, you’ve replaced the worn-out shift lever on your Honda Accord.
