    e30 leather handbrake handle?

    hey guys i have the original plastic handbrake handle and its all cracked and shitty looking and i can seem to find a nice leather wrapped one anywhere at all. i have new leather shift knob, shift boot and handbrake boot and i need something to compliment it. do the e36 ones fit?

    Go to a upull it and find a 5 series or an e36. Yank it off(the handle) and your golden.

        It is the BEST ergonomic mod you can do for your car besides sport seats.

        and yes, the E36 will work.

        if you have trouble finding one, I sell them for $30 shipped

          I grabbed one off an E36 M3 on eBay for $10. Definitely an improvement over the plastic one. Was one of the first things that I bought for my car after I got it.

                  Whiole you're at it, it is well worth it to pick up a leather ebrake boot. E34 boots work with the stock plastic handle, but most of the other handles are too short. I picked a custom one up on ebay for $20, huge improvement in interior looks.

                            I was in a junk yard and spotted a e34 and thought, yes a nice leather e-brack handle. Jumped in it and it had a cheap one like the e30's?
