C'mon guys
Just a little help needed here, do I adjust from inside the car under the rubber or underneath the car itself, or can I adjust from the wheels themselves at or around the brake pad drum area..
Just need a few pointers thats all..

This can only be considered a general piece of advice but given your lack of brake system knowledge I would advise you to take your Corsa to a garage or even one of the tyre outfits as duff brakes can kill you/your passengers/other road users! It really sounds like your brakes are shot if the handbrake will not hold the car at all, no amount of adjustment will sort this out IMO, the car most likely needs new brake components..............

Sorry,lost it a bit back there.Jack it and support it high,Follow cbl's forward,tucked awkwardly between exhaust almost covered by heat shield and just visable is the adjuster.if its not there then centre consul.I'd be asking the guy who fitted it though,how come he did'nt adjust it in the first place?

cant you adjust the handbrake from inside the car? just behind the handbrake isnt there a covering that can be removed ( between the front seats) then give it a bit of 10 mm till it takes up the slack?
