yeah, that's pretty much how mine looks, although i have the alcantara gaiter with it. If you do buy from demontweeks, get the large gaiter as they have a selection of sizes available. You can always tuck the extra matrial under the rubber surround at the base of the handbrake.

Also, NUR vid should be hosted vvvv soon- gave cd to someone yesterday to put somewhere ;)

 

Hmm. How much are those handbrake gaiters? :innocent:

 

More or less :innocent:. Can't remember if I had the handbrake or not then. Having the seats re-covered makes a huge difference - it looks so much better now. I'm giving the interior some attention atm, I did the "blue led" conversion the other weekend too and I've replaced my tatty old chrome rings round the dials with shiny new ones. Just need some stainless steel dials when Pete gets a pattern off a facelift and I'll be there :).

 

Can't remember how much the gaitor was now, but it was quite expensive. Got it from L4Leather along with the handbrake (both Momo). I'm not sure it would fit anything other than a Momo handle.

It's a bit of a sod, yes. I just cut it off in the end - the handle and gaitor are one big bit of rubber as standard, so you have to replace both or neither! The gaitor attaches at the top to the handbrake handle (as they are both Momo). It only just stretches round the metal bit of the handbrake at the front - not quite a perfect fit. It's not fastened down by anything, there's an elasticated bit at the bottom IIRC, and it's just hidden by the normal trim. Here's a photo, you'll see what I mean:-
