1990lumi Posted June 19, 2014 Report Posted June 19, 2014 I was just wondering how hard would it to be to do a swap from the foot pedal parking brake to a hand grip style brake lever, would it be as simple as placing the brake lever in the car with the center counsle and running a cable to the previous brake cable?

Taylor Posted June 19, 2014 Report Posted June 19, 2014 obvioius stuff is bolting the hand brake to the floor, and center console. Hard part is getting a cable that will be compatible with both the hand brake and the cars rear parking brakes, or the adapter thingie that the rear brakes parking brake is attached too. Also, not sure how the hand brake cable is ran. Most likely its from the center of the car, so would probably have to drill a hole and make something fit. Other alternative is making your own adapters. Would be interesting to try. Quote
RobertISaar Posted June 19, 2014 Report Posted June 19, 2014 i want to say Kuntzie did this a couple of years ago..... may or may not have used beretta parts? Quote
Andrew Posted June 21, 2014 Report Posted June 21, 2014 Yeah i remember seeing this done, may well have been Kuntzie. I thought he used Grand Am parts? Quote

Andrew Posted June 21, 2014 Report Posted June 21, 2014 I would search for Kuntzie's thread, he was fairly detailed. Quote
