Porsche Cayman - Video tutorial

Model: Porsche Cayman 987 - Years 2006-2012
Part: Headlight
Operation: Matt headlight polishing

If the headlights have become opaque, it is possible to restore their shine by carrying out an adequate grinding and polishing. Then apply some paper tape all around the headlight to protect the body from any abrasions. Therefore, sand the headlight crystal with an orbital grinder (to speed up the operation, but it is also fine by hand) using a very thin sandpaper (2000 or 3000) until the headlight is uniformly opaque (it is recommended to do this wet operation, vaporizing on the lighthouse of the water). Once grinding is complete, polish the headlight with a soft pad and the appropriate paste, repeat the operation if necessary.

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.
