Sim, I like your eBrake SS handle. What is it and where to get it?

it was a plain chrome cheapo hand brake for a civic.... i bored out the hole so our hand brake shaft is big.... and drilled three holes for set screws to hold it in place and then cut the machined lines to match my knob.... in all honestly... the chrome on it is chipping.... and kinda flaking... im going to make a new hand brake handle outa aluminum and polish it... or i might go with a momo.... a forum member already shotguned my hand brake handle... ill probably just give it to him and he can powdercoat it or full polish it.... idk? ill just tell him he has to pay for shipping... and its his....

one more thing... you have to cut the stock leather on the e brake to expose the metal shaft to make any after market e brake handle work... ok back to the topic....

Looks pretty good man. Questions: Are there options other than what you have? Will they fit Nismo seats? Do they go OVER the stock seat covers or do you take those off and put these on? AND where did you buy?

Thanks!

nismo seats are no different than base seats.. same goes for touring except for the seat controls. The differencee is upholstery.. Roadster seats though are completely different and better looking IMO

Wow thanks man.

How is installation? Need any special tools?

BTW just talked to one of the guys on eBay. They said they will make me a cover with black leather, white inserts, and white stitching
AND the airbags work with these on too! $200 not bad!!!

Have you ever heard of classic soft trim? They make great seat covers, not sure about the cost though

+1 on the Clazzio's if you are looking for leather/leather'ish. I have them on my Nissan Cube and they've held up well. They are really well made too.

Take a look here and if you find something you like, shoot me a PM for pricing. If you click on the Racing tab, you'll find more race oriented seats and equipment. This link takes you to the Tuning tab.
