Mercedes Classe C - Video tutorial

Model: Mercedes Classe C W204 - Years 2007-2013
Part: Outside rearview mirror
Operation: Removing the exterior mirror cap Mercedes C-Class W204

If you want to give the car a more captivating look, it is advisable to apply chrome or carbon effect caps to the exterior mirrors: these accessories are easily available in the after market and generally they are either caps to be superimposed on the original ones or, as in this case, of caps that replace the original ones; the disassembly of the cap is very simple since it is fixed to the mirror: start by pulling the edge under the mirror forwards and then pull the cap upwards until it releases; proceed backwards for installation, paying attention to the fixing tab in the center of the shell itself.

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.
