handbrake adjustment

hi all ,my wifes 55 plate micra needs the handbrake adjusted it goes to 8 clicks before holding ,is the a easy adjustment or does it need a garage to do also if it is a easy fix can you let me know what i need to do ,many thanks:laugh:
 
the handbrake should hold about 6 to 8 clicks but to adjust it where the handbrake is there is a little part of trim that can be pulled off once done pull the rubber cover under the handbrake and should see or feel a long threded bolt with a nut thats the adjuster its 10mm would recomened a deep 10mm socket on a long extenstion

hope it helps
 
Since I bought my brand new car in 2006, have always pressed the button while pulling the handbrake up, so i never hear how many clicks...Its something I learnt from my driving instructor, he probably did it to save the wear and tear of the rachet
