Default Noobie E-brake question

How hard is it to adjust the emergency brake cable (tighten it)? When I pull it up all the way it still rolls unless I put it in gear. Is this something I can do or do I have to bring it in? By the way, its a 2001 convertible. Is this a common problem? Sorry for all the questions.

Thanks in advance, --Kevin.

You need to pull your rotor to adjust teh e-brake...but once you get the rotor off it's pretty easy.

I'm sure there's directions online on pulling the rotor it's been a while since i've done it.
