    No i don't think so.All i want to do is replace the leather handle with the carbon fiber one i bought.But the diagram does not show that.And again this weekend i tried,there must be a trick to it.

    Can you please post up a picture of the handbrake? I've never heard/seen the carbon fiber version before.

    From the picture, I'm guessing that the leather handle slips out, with some intensive jiggling effort.
    (i've removed handbrakes from other cars before with a heatgun, but never had to in the 360 yet).

    Thanks in advance..

    The handle grip portion that fits onto the parking brake leaver assm. is removable. It is a pressed on part and can be removed. If you take a small block of wood to protect the handle grip and tap it towards the release button, foreword, it will release the handle. Make sure you watch where the button at the end of the handle goes at as it rest at the tip of the mechanism.

    We will be offering these items shortly in Carbon, we do also offer custom carbon steering wheels as well.
