LOL... srsly?










Unscrew stock 'button' from the e-brake handle, remove it and the spring behind it.
Unscrew a rear seat fold down knob.
Force rear seat knob onto different threads of the e-brake lever release shaft.

If you want to get technical - wrap some electrical tape (or fancier with heat shrink) around the part that extends in the handle so it doesn't rattle around as much.

Done.

To remove the rubber(?) ebrake handle you have to twist it with all your might.

LOL

Just the LITTLE black button inside the handle comes out. Leave the handle alone!!!
Pliers may be necessary...


Truthfully, this is kinda an oldie but goldie type of deal. Been a long time since I've seen it post about anywhere...
