Parking brake lever button plastic tip broke off
So a couple of weeks ago, I let my parking brake off and the little piece of plastic on the very tip came off. Dealer said they can't fix it without replacing the entire parking brake lever. So any suggestions about getting this fixed? The brake works fine and this is mostly cosmetic.

WHAT YEAR! MODEL! The parking brake might be different for some 4G models/years.

LEVER ASSY., HAND BRAKE *NH690L* (PREMIUM BLACK) for 2012 Acura TL SEDAN|47105-TK4-A02ZH : Genuine Acura Parts Cheap : Delray Acura
You could fill with epoxy and paint for cheap fix, or find a wrecked TL near you and get the handbrake from it.
2012-2014 TL use the same part, 09-11 use the same one. The two are slightly different hence the different part numbers. Not sure on cross fitment.

Hmm. Looks like Acura should have stuck with the 09-11 version.

Tell you what... If I ever do pony up to have the dealer fix this, I will ask if that's possible. No way I'd pay for another one of these buttons. My car only has 55,000 miles on it.
What is the difference with the 09-11 cars? Would anyone be willing to post a photo?
