Can anyone tell me how I can remove the hand brake handle from the handbrake mechanism? I would like to get this part refinished. Also, I need to know how to remove the mirror control switch from the center console.
On the mirror switch you start by taking the tray out of the ashtray and remove the 1 phillips head screw... then take the 4 machine screws out the hold the shift gate / take knob off then the whole panel including the radio will come out lifting up in the rear then there is one big connector for the mirror switch and the others so you dont have to try to disconnect all of them then there are a few on the radio... once the panel is off you will see that it screws in from underneath with 4x #1 phillips screws... I included some pics The park brake handle I usually do in the car and the parts breakdown doesn't show the black handle as being seprate...

Thanks for the writeup! I have one question though. Once you remove the ashtray, shift gate and shift knob, aren't there more screws to remove to pull the center console panel? In your diagram it appears that screws #2 and #18 need to be removed before you can lift the center console. Can you please clarify?
If like the 355/360, the Ebrake handle is glued on. No screws or bolts hold it in place. Alot of twisting and pulling and it will slide off. Sometimes it can be tough....
