Here's some pics of the adjuster mechanism that is pressed into the rear caliper pistons. You have to pull it out with a lot of force and press it back in with a lot of force. Very nerve wracking!

Many years ago I replaced the adjuster cover threaded allen plugs with hex head plugs offered by Tweeks and Automotion. They work fine. The allen plugs, which are some soft metal, had become become rounded and difficult to remove.
