does anyone know the secret to removing the e-brake handle cover... i need a new one, or to paint this one, im putting in a black console, and the brown handle wont work...
i would like to not have to paint it while its in the car...
you just pull it off, it might be hooked to something underneath, but make sure the rest of the center console is off, i took mine off the other day, now go try it quick

I heard it was a *itch to get off.
the handle itself is easy to get off.
Remove console
Disconnect spade connector from the parking brake switch
Remove the bolts (2 I believe) that hold the brake handle to the body
Remove the 2 cables from the equalizer
remove the handle
See Easy Money
yep yep yep

Sperate the 2 sections by removing the 2 screws on the sides by the seat where the 2 sections split. I'll look at my spare ebrake handle sometime, when I get time and see if the actual plastic/rubber cover comes off. I think it slides off but I'm not totally for sure

if you take the cover and grab it at the bottom in the back you should be able to lift it and slide it fwd to get it off. I tried it last night with mine still in the car and it slid off just fine.
yeah, i got it off last night too, mine was glued on, but the glue was old enough that it broke... now i need a new cover to put on, its just the metal right now...
im not painting the one i have from my stock console, because i dont intend on selling the new console with the car unless i do more work and get the interior totally brown and black...
thanks you guys

when i took mine off, it just had to pull it off with a bit of agitation. i need to redo mine black again. or maybe red? it would go it the interior, but probley get oil from my hands on it and turn a dirty color. anyway, the rubber cover thing should come off by pulling it off.

lightbulb, thats pretty tight, but my car is alot more stock than urs, so im lookin for a simple black handle...
so u can jsut pull on it and the plastic cover will come off or what, im confused.
you have to remove the console, and at the bottom of the cover, where you can get underneath it, you have to pull out to the sides and then it should just pull off...
you need to pull out because there are little plastic circles that pop into holes in the handle to hold it in place... it doesnt take any work, just time to take the console off first... if ur still confused i can take pictures of my handle to explain...
oooh ok gotcha, i thought u could jsut leave the console in, and pull off the plastic covering.
