Fiat 500 - Video tutorial

Model: Fiat 500 312 - Years 2007-2021
Part: Outside rearview mirror
Operation: Replacing the plastic on a rearview mirror, on Fiat 500

Remove the glass from the cap simply by levering it from behind with a small flat screwdriver: carry out this operation working slowly to avoid damaging the hooks which are rather fragile. It is not necessary to remove the glass completely, so leave it connected to the cables. At this point you have free access to the four clips that secure the mirror cover to the structure. Push them with a flat screwdriver and pop the lid out. Assemble the new plastic by simply inserting it by hand, and do the same with the glass. Nothing easier!

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.
