In this video, you will learn how to adjust the handbrake on a Seat Ibiza 6J: the first step is to remove the plastic cover of the handbrake, the one with the cup holder, to access the handbrake mechanism. This piece is only pressed in, so you can pull it off with some force but also gently.

Once removed, you will need a 10 mm ratchet spanner. Locate the screw where you need to tighten or loosen the handbrake.

Ideally, when fully pulled, it should give a maximum of three to four clicks. You can then replace the cover by simply pressing it back into place.

To remove the rear seat of a Hyundai Tucson, follow these steps. Start by moving the front seats to their most forward position to gain space. Next, locate the release lever on the underside of the rear seat, near the floor. Press this lever down while pulling the seat upwards to unlock it from the anchor pins. Once unlocked, tilt the seat upwards and forwards to remove it from its position. Repeat this process for both sides of the rear seat.
