I want to put on an aftermarket ebrake handle and leather boot, how would i go along doing this and how hard is it. also i have an automatic and how hard would it be to put a aftermarket shifter on and relocate the OD switch.


thanks

The OD relocate would be just cutting a little hole and mounting it. The shifter you unscrew a few screws, pull off, choping the od wire (no worries your moving it anyways) and putting the new one on. The ebrake boot just pulls right off. If not wd-40 or grease it up, I had to to get it off. Some one told me they heated theres and then pulled it off too. Good luck.

well, since i dont have an auto, i cant provide many details, only what i would do. i would get one of those slimline handles to replace that gargantuan OEM one. get a boot made and tuck that between the console and selector plate. make sure it stays tied up at the top..i just like auto's with a boot much better. as far as the e-brake handle...i have found a pretty nice one on ebay made for hondas...i dunno what fabbing might be involved. more than likley youll have to cut off the ruber coating or at least shave some off to get those tubular ones to work. i have seen some that are a more rounded rectagle type that would probably fit with no mods. and then throw a boot on the rest of it to cover up that cheap ass plastic. this is just my .02
