Hand Brake Cover

Has anybody replaced their hand brake with a customer hand brake or a custom hand brake cover? If so can you post pics and explain the install?

Nada - I just wanted some input on hand brakes. Or if anybody has any custom pics - thats all. But yours truly 'slat' had to give his 2 cents which I must say is very impressive. Great comment !!!

Wow that was out of left field then.

Anyhow, I haven't seen anyone that's done it yet but anything is possible.

Aww, I was just having some fun with the the smilies and your name cracks me up!

I'd personally be more inclined to change the shift knob on the TSX myself, but I'm sure you can do the e-brake handle as well -- just look around. Check this out: http://www.modacar.com/products/Acura/TSX/MODAEBH/

There are several handles listed for the TSX. However, I'm not sure how you would install them. ??? I think the one at the bottom of the page on the right would maybe look cool with the TSX interior. Just my

Yeah I got one. but I havent installed it yet. I got the Momo satin silver one. Cost me a lot more than I wanted to pay for it. It looks good tho. I'm going to get my shop to take a look at it but it looks like I will also have to get a new boot as the stock boot is too small to cover the end of the handbrake.

Yeah, I will for sure. It should look good with the custom silver consol. I've got a set of Koni yellows ordered and will prolly get everything installed at once.

not yet. I special ordered it from Canadian tire. Was going to get it from Neuspeed, but the shipping cost and the extra $60 UPS charges for some tart's signature at the boarder made it like 3 times the actual price. Plus the local shops around here dont carry momo. Crappy Tire quoted me $70 but ended up costing me $140 for some reason. - total BS. I'll try and get some pictures up when I go home for the weekend.
