GEAR SELECTOR TRIM PANEL. A gear selector trim panel is a decorative and protective interior component installed around the gear selector area of a vehicle. The main purpose of this part is to protect the surface of the center console and gear shifting mechanism components from wear, scratches, dirt and mechanical damage that may occur during vehicle operation. The trim also performs an aesthetic function by improving the appearance of the center console and complementing the overall interior design of the vehicle. Gear selector trims are manufactured from various materials including plastic, ABS plastic, aluminum, stainless steel, wood or composite materials with decorative finishes. Depending on the design, these components may feature glossy, matte, chrome‑plated, painted or textured surfaces. The trim is designed for precise fitment to the original installation location and may be mounted using clips, retainers or automotive double‑sided adhesive tape. These trims can be used both as replacements for damaged original elements and as decorative accessories to refresh or personalize the vehicle interior. The catalog includes gear selector trim panels for various vehicle makes and models. Selection is based on transmission type, center console design and compatibility with a specific vehicle model.
