hey guys,
so i tried changing my gaitors and the handbrake went really well but once i got onto doing the gear stick one i completely stuffed it up
the top of the gaitor just would not fit over my gear knob no matter what (it was just way too tight) and i couldn't loosen it so i tried pulling the zip tie out and couldn't put it back in lol
i'm using this picture for reference

it just wouldn't slide over the knob
i was following this guide: http://www.opelaus.com/forums/showthread.php?26313-How-to-install-leather-gaiters-in-a-Astra-G
these are the ones i bought off of ebay: http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/280884907320?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649
anyone had this problem or know what to do?
thanks in advance, i'm new to the whole car scene
