Removing the ebrake handle

Okay, this is a bit embarrassing to ask, (since I make ebrake handles); but has anyone removed their stock one yet?

I traded my 2014 JCW Paceman last week for an F55, just whipped up and installed a shift ****, and now I want to replace the stock ebrake handle.

I'm trying to remove it like the first and second generation cars, but not having a lot of luck so far.

Never mind; it pulls straight off.

No need to pry off the nose piece, and the handle is not attached to the boot; so it's actually simpler to remove this one, than the previous generations.
