Mazda Mx 5 - Video tutorial

Model: Mazda Mx 5 MK 1 - Years 1989-1997
Part: Soft top
Operation: How do you replace the Mazda MX5 soft top?

In order to replace the Mazda Mx 5 soft top, first of all you need to clean the rear part and above all the gasket to which the new sheet will be fixed. At this point it will be possible to position the new cloth on top of the frame: the roof top is made up of two layers that must be inserted as shown in the video and joined with the velcro. Then you will have to insert the turned corners in the lower profile of the frame and mount the guides. When the guides have been assembled, the gaskets must be inserted, using screwdrivers and screws and spreading the sheet by hand over the frame.

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.
