Model: Fiat 500 Epoca - Years 1957-1975
Part: Seat
Operation: How to remove the seats on a Fiat 500

Hi, Today I will show you how to remove the seats of our Fiat 500. I begin by saying that it seems a very complex operation but in reality with a bit of commitment and foresight we can do it without the need for a professional. First we raise the backrest and tilt it forward, now you will see that there are "rails" where the seat is housed, well, all we have to do is get the seat base out of these rails, with the help of a hammer we give some taps along the internal rails (ie those that are part of the seat) so as to release them and by applying a force towards the outside we will be able to extract the seat.

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.
