Prob a dumb question but the gear shift numbers are upside down or slightly sideways. What is the best way to fix so they face the correct direction? Also can I replace the skirt on the shift? It's got a small rip.

 

I'm not sure about the Fit, but most all manual shift knobs are simply screwed on. A twist ought to orient it correctly. My Fit is an Auto, so I can't address the boot around the shift, but this too should be easy, often with removal of the center console.

 

yah, if u can't tighten any further try some thread lock at the position u like and let it sit overnight to dry.

 

The knob is just threaded on with an interference fit. Just turn it until it aligns properly. I had to adjust mine a slight bit.

 

Masking tape and a Sharpie marker. You will have personalized your Fit like no one else on the planet!
