I would also like to know.. In my old accord, had a small latch and I tightened the two screws behind the e-brake... not sure if thats the proper way.

Think you can tighten them from rear brakes..can anyone confirm?

jack up the rear of your car have the parking brake pulled up one notch, remove the rear console, there will be an adjusting nut, tighten this until your rear wheels drag a little when you're spinning them, release the brake fully and make sure the wheels spin freely, you're good to go
