Another busy afternoon

by Robs-se » Sat Sep 15, 2012 9:44 pm

Changing the handbrake lever. Passenger seat out and centre console removed it was then
jacking up the car to get at the handbrake cable to undo the nut on the yolk. Once that was
done it was the two bolts under the carpet, and pull the lever upwards undoing the switch
on the way out

and the old lever out the car

Image

new one ready to go in

Image

Then it was inserting the lever back into the slot making sure to reconnect
the parking switch. Once in it was then b@ggering about underneath to
make sure the gaiter goes back on correctly and then replacing the two
bolts under the carpet and reconnecting the the cable and screwing it back up.

Image

and with the gaiter and centre console replaced it was time to put the seat back.

not bad for a few hours work.
