How do you remove the plastic handle on the handbrake?

Cheers.

Seems its either a hairdryer or a sharp knife to remove.

:? I think I might give it a miss then.


Thanks for the link Derek. :D

Oh and don't forget we're having a wee meet on the 18th, pop along if you can. :wink:

Hi Donald, sadly I will have to miss the meet, as my daughter is playing football at that time. (The same thing happened for the Irvine meet.)

She plays for a team from the East End of Glasgow, I am sure you would love to cheer them on! (Not!)

Yep. I had to cut the plastic handle off to fit a nice shiney MX5 alloy one - like this, but much cheaper - -
