handbrake handle

[paddy quinn]

can you change the handle and how how is it as im sick of that plastic plain thing

[Sonny Jim]

your cars going to be tack master flash in no time pal haha

[mowgli]

why are you spending time looking at the handbrake???? is this a fetish of yours? all crap accessory shops can provide covers of a low enough quality that you'll wish you hadn't

[Jack]

Not sure about removing the plastic handgrip, as you'd need to find something simlar to replace it. You could replace the entire mechanism I suppose, or if you're after something a little easier you can get handle covers which slide over the plastic handle and screw in place

nothing will be tacky with my baby pal

...Unless you have an interior something like Amir's Nova then there is no point in having the handle trimmed IMO (don't know if he even has). You can get slide/screw on covers that will match your steering wheel/gaiter/pedals/parts you've painted etc.

Swedgeballsacks, clean your bloody seats instead of buying tat lol

[paddy quinn]

yeah its getting the harnesses thats a pain ive got window motors and gsi centre consle with switches and swedge is yours just a slide on part on your handbrake

lol. Aye Swedge, that is nasty. Why people think things like that are nice I will never know.

Paddy, you will need to relocate the window switches if you have harnesses. I had my Nova stripped, fixed buckets etc and I moved them into the radio DIN hole by mounting them in a DIN blanking plate. Come to think of it, I think it was cos I got shot of the centre console, but I still don't think they would have been accesible. lol

[paddy quinn]

nova is only stripped out so i can do welding underneeth dont want it to set on fire

[L14MNP]

lol I take it you are referring to the pic on the previous page?

Quoting relevant replies helps.

Yeah, but no matter what seat you fit a harness to - hope you aren't fitting them to standard seats - you will still struggle to reach the switches if they're in the standard position (iirc).
