Installing an armrest that also acts as a practical storage compartment is certainly an excellent solution and in the after market there are really many products at absolutely reasonable prices; it is advisable to choose one that is also adjustable in depth that can be installed without having to disassemble anything; in fact, immediately behind the handbrake lever there is a small compartment for objects and the armrest can in fact be inserted inside it and fixed with two self-tapping screws, then applying a mat inside to mask them: a certain pressure must be applied on the screws to be able to screw them while drilling the hole.

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.
