Just about to fit a leather handbrake to the ute, Ive got the chrome button and Im wondering if I can remove it from the new lever to put it into the existing one.
So before I destroy it, anybody know how to remove the button from the handbrake assembly?

Tell me about it .... I bought one ages ago ... still hasn't made it's way into the ute yet.
It's on the "to-do" list.

Might be your cheapest option though getting it done by a trimmer ... handle as well.

well if anyone wants this one i have to play with, ill sell it for $40 + post (max $10). The leather is ok is just needs a bloody good clean and even then Im not sure how it would come up. The handle is buggered cos I was messing round with it but the chrome button would be salvagable.

Yes, the button just screws out. I'll give you $10 for just the button - not interested in the rest.
