E-brake handle

Are there any aftermarket E-brake handles for the X, besides the OEM one? Stock e-brake is pretty ugly and I'd love to have it replaced...

You mean besides the one from the interior sport kit? I haven't seen any other options besides that one, but it's really nice.

+1 for the sports interior piece, other than that you can look at a momo one, not sure how it will fit since when you take the stock one off the mount is angled not flat

me too. I have a glove in my glove box too. That is It is like holding a piece of ice. When it is below freezing, it feels like an ice burn when you grab the shift knob.

Am I the only one that think the hand brake stick out like...hmmm...something familiar?

Anyway, I think the handbrake is begging for a good leather cover (like the gear knob).

I can agree with that. It would make the interior look a bit nicer.

There's a Ralliart all aluminum one now that you can get for about 1/2 of the al/leather one.

Where can you get the Ralliart one? That looks pretty nice.

It's funny that you run iVTECDdaily. I used to have a Type-S and I read a few of the mod tutorials on you website (including red-out taillights). After all these years you're still feeding me useful info!

lol, I'm here to help. Sadly, my kids take up too much time now and I don't really have any plans to migrate iVTECDaily to a Honda & Evo site... Oh well.

You can pick one up from Mitsubishiparts.net (~$140):

Does this part just slide over the stock E-brake handle?
