I remember seeing some pics from our bud's ride that has aftermarket hand brake handle (the e-brake handle). I did a search but see no thread talks about this mod.

Any one did it?? Can I see some pics?? Is it necessary to shave off the existing one or just simply an over-cap??

Many thanks for your feedback. :thumbsup:

Got hacked huh??! Doh!!

Can we please have some pics and comments over this again?? I really want to replace mine but also wish to know the challenge and what to look for before I purchase a replacement.

Please~~

Hey Joseph.... I replaced my E-brake handle in my liftback with a handle from NRG. I purchased the non-weighted brushed aluminum one. Yes, you have to cut the original plastic one off. I used a dremmel tool to do this. The NRG also fits flawlessly. Here are some pics from my former yarisgarage that was lost in the hack.

Good to know the NRG fits without much modding...I was looking to get it for the HB and my tC.I thought about the Sparco one,but for the money it cost I did not want to cut it up.
