I want a new handbrake, the button on the end of mine is rattling, and its getting pretty scratched up. I decided i want to just replace it, Anyone know of any that look awesome? link em please! thanks.
But none of the ebrake handle kits include the button, they are all just handles. If you need the button you have to get the whole ebrake lever, that has the button in it. I have a good used one if that's what you need.
Not a great pic, but I do love the MOMO hand brake I got. It was on sale for about $35 which, compared to the asking price of parts specific to the mini, is almost dirt cheap. It did require an adapter (A6) for an additional $6. I wrapped the handbrake shaft with electric tape to ensure a tight fit for the set screws (also did this with the Sparco shift knob). It looks good, fits great, and isn't going anywhere. Just to really finish the job, I also replaced the original, ripped stock hand brake boot with a JCW Alcantara version.
Hmm thanks! That Momo one looks wayy cooler on than i thought it would. but the whalen, i dont really dig chrome.But to waymotorworks, yeah, i might need that button, if i decide i do i will PM you sometime.thanks guys!
The momo one worked fine with the stock lever. The original button slides trough the adapter just fine. The adapters only function is to fit the opening to the specific size/shape of the cars button. The A6 which I used and fit perfectly isfor a civic but no problems whatsoever. For the price it's hard to beat. It's why I chose it. Frankly, it offers a ton of options aside from the 3 specifically tailored to our cars. Plus it looks good.

Sorry for the off topic question, but your picture of the "control panel" type thing you fabricated really caught my eye. I remember seeing a thread about that before, do you happen to have a link to it? Like how you built it or what not?
Again, sorry for the off topic response.

The Whalen is not chrome, it's brushed SS. I believe he makes them in black delrin also?
It was a lot of work, but I love it. There have been a couple mods as far as wiring mostly since its initial build, and a break in left me without a GPS so there is a dead switch currently. That all said, the link is: http://www.northamericanmotoring.com...h-toggles.html
