Model: BMW Serie 3 E92, E91, E90 - Years 2005-2013
Part: Outside rearview mirror
Operation: How to remove the outside rearview mirror of a BMW 3 Series

Do you want to remove the exterior front door mirror of a BMW 3 Series? Let's see how to proceed. First of all, with a plastic spatula, remove the molding on the left door. Let's start by unscrewing the screws under the handle with a screwdriver, let's pull them off with pliers. We detach the door panel with the spatula from the door panel, then, disconnect the window regulator and speaker controls. We detach the piece (with the whole frame) placed at the corner of the door as in the video. Disassemble the mirror with the appropriate torx screws present and disconnect the power supply terminal. We reassemble the mirror and all the attached pieces by proceeding backwards.

Handbrake adjustment on Ford Ecosport

First remove the plastic profile at the base of the gear lever. To do this, slightly widen the side edges and carefully lift it to release it. There is no need to remove it completely, just move it forward to avoid bother. Now remove the plastic center console around the handbrake by first working from the rear to release it and lifting it until the brake lever passes. Also in this case it is not necessary to remove it completely but, paying attention to the connected cables, it can be stowed in front of the passenger seat. At this point we notice that at the base of the handbrake lever, on the front, we find a nut. By acting on it, with a 10 wrench, we can adjust the brake force, increasing it by turning the nut clockwise, or decreasing it by turning it counterclockwise. Once adjusted, the center console can be repositioned first, pressing lightly to engage it, and then the profile of the gearbox base.
