Hello

I know it's a long shoot but I was wondering if anyone had a carbon handbrake lever for a 997 laying around that they wanted to sell?

Thanks for looking

Hello

I've been told the 996 handbrake doesn't fit the 997.

Thanks for posting though.
 
I did see that one on eBay but I need a black leather and carbon one, not sure how easy it will be to separate the carbon outer section off to swap it over.

Thanks for looking :)
 
They are not easy to separate and believe me I tried, they are supposed to be glued on but you can twist off, when I could hear cracking I stopped lol......ended up swapping the whole lever over which is pretty easy but I'm used to removing and refitting the centre console.
 
Yeah I thought as much. Carbon and glue tends to lead to a very permanent join :-(

Pity that one on eBay is res

Change over the leather part. that's quite easy
 
True the leather is easy to swap over ......means you could get a none black leather one .......but you'll still need to swap the levers over :thumb:

Changing the hand break over is not major just a bit time consuming mines been in and out loads of times lol. and you can reuse your black leather rear banana section they just slide off. that would be what I would do. :thumb: any Indi would do it no problem :thumb:

I'd have thought re-dying the leather would be pretty straightforward... need an airbrush and some leather dye.
 
I have a rear black leather part I can sell.
If you buy the one off ebay

Hello Everyone.

Firstly I hope everyone is safe, well and not going crazy stuck indoors.

Sorry to dig this old thread up again but I had to put this on hold due to having to replace the air con condensers and having a few other maintenance bits done.

I am now actively looking again if anyone has come across one, or has one please let me know.

Many thanks and happy Easter if you celebrate the holiday.

Steve
