I'm Looking for an alternative to the floor mounted kick panel mounted emergency brake. I was wondering what others have done to relocate. How well does it work for you? and was it worth it? Michael
Looked at the price of that and $450.00 - $500.00 is way more then I would want to spend on a e brake. with the possibility of it failing locked on. Michael
Did you use the existing cables or do you not need them at all? I looked them up, but the description wasn't too clear.
I would think since it has to be mounted somewhere firm. That you would need to mount on the subframe and would require new cables, to fit the new application. Michael
There is a thread here where one of the members put a pull-handle type e-brake in an aftermarket center console. I will see if I can find it and post a link here. ---Edit---- Found the project thread where they installed a pull handle e-brake, starts at posting #437 http://www.nastyz28.com/forum/showthread.php?t=228177&page=30
the e stop you have to mount solid to the frame and make new cables. the customer lives in newyork and puts it on with a wireless remote to avoid theft if they get the car started.
