Volkswagen Polo - Video tutorial

Model: Volkswagen Polo Polo 4, MK 4, Polo IV, 9N, MK IV - Years 2001-2009
Part: Accessory Kit
Operation: Guide to installing shiny door pillars

The video shows us how to replace the original opaque pillars on the outside of the front doors with a kit of pillars with a glossy finish. To remove the original pillars, as shown in the video, you need to move the window seal to access the crosshead screws, two per pillar. Once the screws are removed, gently remove the pillar cover, being careful to recover and install the damping material on the new piece, as suggested in the comment. Then proceed to install the kit with the glossy finish. The video features a Volkswagen Polo.

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.
