Right clicks are stiffer, left clicks are softer. 0 being stiffest, 16 being softest.

dont you have the manual (for soft/stiff)? turn the knob all the way clockwise and then start counting, 16 clicks counter-clockwise is the softest (from what i remember) so in your case turn the adjustment knob 8 clicks counter-clockwise.

To adjust the rear damper you have to take off (or atleast loosen up) the rear deck.

You should always turn the knob clockwise till it doesn't click anymore, which it's at its stiffest than click counterclockwise (make softer) to what you want to set it at. Just don't go past 16 clicks cause you may damage the coilover.

You don't really have to remove the rear deck. Just take the screws off between the backrest and the seat itself and lift the backrest up off the clips and pull it towards yourself. Than push the deck up a bit till you can reach your hand in to adjust the knob.
