Stupid question but..

My gear gator won't go back on.. None of the clips are broken and whenever i clip it in and put it into reverse it pops out again.. Not sure what to do, any help would be great

You sure the two tags are still there at the front of the gaitor? Just replaced my mums tonight.

 

[HartZ]

Yeah everything looks intact, can't see any traces of anything snapped off..

This has happened to me.

The leather gator bit, is too tight and when you put it into reverse there isn't enough slack...

Try just pushing the leather bit further down the gear stick.

mines snapped so had to push it right down

My tags have gone, dunno where, but whole gaitor is now loose. Do I need to get the tags from Renault or is there an easy DIY fix?

I Had The Same Problem...I Put Superglue all the way round the rim of the plastic mould and pushed it back in and then waited for the glue to dry...worked for me!

Thanks Daz, think I might need one seeing as pushing it down didn't seem to do the trick..

Cheers mate, how easy is it to fit. From memory isn't the leather gator stapled to this plastic bit?

edit: Ah no problem I've found the other 10 threads on this !

lol, as you've probably read it's ty-wrapped to the gear stick shaft. 10 mins of a job max

this happend to me i sorted it with some clear superglue just a couple of drops on the clips, works a treat and with it being clear you cannot see it also just using a coupleof drops its easy to get out if needed..

but...for £5 is it really worth bodging?
