Vauxhall Astra - Video tutorial

Model: Vauxhall Astra Astra H - Years 2004-2010
Part: Headlight
Operation: How to regenerate the headlights of the Opel Astra H version with liquid polycarbonate.

In this video, we see how to regenerate the headlights of the Opel Astra Version H: this system has a crystallization action on the opaque polycarbonate, restoring its transparency. The process occurs through the evaporation of a chemical substance such as acetone, which is one of the components of polycarbonate. The vapor emitted by acetone triggers a process that crystallizes the material, and it is not limited to simple polishing, making it much more durable. We can find this product on Amazon with the code B09L1M1JL9, priced at 16.01 euros, with free delivery for Prime customers. The usage is very simple, after a thorough cleaning of the headlight assembly, we slowly spray the product as shown in the video; we will see the regeneration of the headlight in a wonderful way with our own eyes!

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.
