Ford Fiesta - Video tutorial

Model: Ford Fiesta MK VI, Fiesta 6, MK 6 - Years 2008-2017
Part: Accessory Kit
Operation: After market armrest installation

To facilitate assembly, move the passenger seat forward by lifting the backrest. Using a 7 mm socket wrench, unscrew the screws on the two sides of the central tunnel, at the rear. Then lift the central tunnel until you can see the support brackets for the screws that have just been unscrewed, remove both anchoring clips of the screws and reposition the tunnel. Extract the rubber lining from the object holder (or bottle holder) always present in the rear part of the tunnel and unhook the upper part of the tunnel from the lower one, simply pulling it upwards and detach the cable present just under the tunnel cover. Insert the supplied drilling template on the bottom of the bottle holder and mark with an awl the 4 points in which to make the holes and then drill the holes themselves with a 10 mm bit; remove the template and the plastic shavings. Screw the two spacers supplied to the studs in the rear part of the tunnel and tighten them with the 10 mm wrench. Apply the support bracket inside the lower part of the tunnel and fix it laterally with the two pins and relative washers supplied (instead of the two side screws previously removed) and to the spacer just installed. Hook the upper part of the tunnel back on, checking the alignment of the holes drilled with those of the bracket. Using a 4 mm Allen wrench, remove the fixing pin of the armrest to the support and remove the armrest itself; unscrew the fixing screw of the plastic cover of the support bracket and remove it. Then insert the armrest support bracket inside the tunnel and fix it with the 4 pins supplied; reapply and secure the plastic cover. Finally insert the armrest and fix it with the Allen pin; apply the supplied rubber adhesive to the bottom of the bracket cover.

How to open the seat of a scooter without the key

If we have to open the saddle on a scooter when we do not have the key, we can find the necessary information and useful information on how to move in the description below and also in the video. The saddle is normally opened by inserting the key in the dashboard and pressing the appropriate control. If we do not have the key available, we can still open it by removing the panel which is placed immediately under the saddle where we rest our feet and intercept the opening cable and then pull it manually. This way the saddle will open.
