hand brake swap

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?

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.
