This video shows how to adjust and remove the handbrake lever of a Ford Fiesta. Use a screwdriver to remove the cover under the armrest (if available), then unscrew the plastic armrest with a socket wrench.

Once the piece is removed, unscrew (with a socket wrench or screwdriver with a bit) the securing nuts of the centre tunnel under the handbrake lever. Once the handbrake lever is free, adjust the lever by loosening or tightening the pins.

Finally, refit the cover and all associated parts in reverse order.

How to Remove the Rear Seat of a Hyundai Tucson?

To remove the rear seat of a Hyundai Tucson, follow these steps. Start by moving the front seats to their most forward position to gain space. Next, locate the release lever on the underside of the rear seat, near the floor. Press this lever down while pulling the seat upwards to unlock it from the anchor pins. Once unlocked, tilt the seat upwards and forwards to remove it from its position. Repeat this process for both sides of the rear seat. Be careful of any electrical cables or components that may be connected to the seat during removal. Once the rear seat is removed, the disassembly is complete.
