chilly Posted May 8, 2007 Share Posted May 8, 2007 I'm looking at replacing the tatty old handbrake for a new one. Dont know whether to get a new oem one or go aftermarket. Anyone got any idea on costs and ease of fitment? Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matti85 Posted May 8, 2007 Share Posted May 8, 2007 It got some big bolts to loose, hard to get around them since the seat side is on the way. Am on to remove it as well to carve out the rubber and put a nice Toyota chrome one on as well. But wonder if its just to untie the bolts and the wirre or is it something i have to be carefull about when removing it, i dont want to loose the funconality of the handbrake My question is what the wire does, if i tighten it up what happens, if i loose it a litle what happens ?

DamanC Posted May 8, 2007 Share Posted May 8, 2007 |Got myself a momo jobbie and a gaiter from supradibbs http://img165.imageshack.us/img165/194/imgp1284sizeya9.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turbonut Posted May 8, 2007 Share Posted May 8, 2007 Yup, I should be getting mine this wend from Wayne too. The momo is a sleeve that fits over the existing handle and the gaiter is made to measure, from his supplier. I learnt the hard way that 'Universal fit' is not necessarily a 'one size fits all makes of car' job but the Momo definitely fits, Wayne can give you prices and different options on your gaiter - colour of leather and stitching etc Linda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
