Help: How to replace handbrake lever?

As the title says, I want to replace my handbrake lever. Not the grippy part, but the whole lever itself since the chrome button is looking pretty rough. My issue is that I can't seem to find anywhere online where someone else has done this, it always seems to be just the handle/grippy part. If anyone has done this and has some helpful that'd be great.

Oh, not sure if it matters or not but I have a facelift r53

Once you take the center console out it should just bolt to the car. Remove the cable and it should come right out. Have not done the whole assembly but it should be pretty straight forward.
