If it's rear discs it's quite easy. Take the centre console out. Two screws underneath the rear ashtray, and two torx drive screws under the gearstick gaiter which should lift out with a delicate poke with a flathead screwdriver. Slacken the adjuster at the back of the handbrake but it needn't come right off. Jack up the car / chock / remove rear wheels. Pull the cable back and down from the caliper leaver. Punch the cable jacket out of the housing on the hub. This will be very tight and take a good hit, you will need a long punch or bolt to hit. Pull the cables out and then follow them through the various clips and channels until you can pull them away from the handbrake. The o/s one is easy. The n/s one goes behind the exhaust shield which will need to be loosened to gain access. The nylon screws undo and pull out with the clips.
Replace the cables making sure they're the right way round and on the correct side of the car. N/S and O/S are slightly different. Tighten the adjuster until the brakes bind and then slacken off slightly.

How to Tighten handbrake Peugeot 306?
this is for a peugeot 306 made in 1999 (phase 3): to do this you need to remove the long plastic bit that surrounds the handbrake and the gear stick. When you've done this you'll be able to get access to the adjuster nut on the bracket with the handbrake cable riunning through round the back of the handbrake. 1) remove the rear ashtray. 2) remove the two screws (which have torx screw heads) that can be seen in where the ashtray came out from. (they're holding some of the plastic bit down. 3) remove the gearstick gaitor. do this by using a spade head screwdiver or an old credit card to lever the gaitor upwards, working around the edges. 4 )remove the 2 nuts that hold the platic bit down that are under where the gaitor was(1omm nuts) 5)the long plastic bit can now be removed. pull it upwards to let it over the two bolts at the gearstick, and backwards to remove it off the plastic tabs at the front. Adjusting the adjuster nut (13mm): it's probably easiest to get to this sat in the back of the car. 1) locate the adjuster nut at the back of the handbrake under the grey foam stuff. 2) take off the handbrake. (Make sure your car isn't going to role anywhere/ chock your wheels/get someone to step on the foot brake. 3)turn the nut clockwise to tighten the handbrake. You want to get the handbrake to be fully on at somewhere between 6 to ten clicks when you pull it up. 1) put it all back to together.
