Lancia Ypsilon - Video tutorial

Model: Lancia Ypsilon Y3, 846, MK 3, Ypsilon 3 - Years 2011-2023
Part: Bodywork
Operation: How to cover Lancia Ypsilon mirrors with carbon film

To cover the mirrors of our Lancia Ypsilon with the carbon film (which we can find on Amazon at 10.99 euros for the 30x152 cm roll, free shipping), we must first of all heat the mirror with a body shop hairdryer (but a regular hair dryer will do just fine). Let's apply the film on the mirror, paying the utmost attention to the fact that it doesn't form creases - we mustn't get caught up in a hurry, it's a precision job - let's heat it gradually to facilitate the application of the film, shaping it on the mirror. When it is well stretched, we can cut it with a cutter, being very careful not to press too much so as not to damage the mirror body. We remove the excess film and let the excess go back into the connections. Perfect job!

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.
