Does anyone where I could find a guide to fixing/ replacing the handbrake lever/ mechanism to an R26? Alternatively if anyone knows how to do it please let me know step by step instructions.
The plastics on mine could do with swapping no doubt I'll end up having to replace the whole thing tho
you take off the center console what cowers the hand brake and there is the mechanism, from there it is easy. the cower takes off as following. 1.) pull the bottom big ring holding the leather around the gear stick, and now, simply pull the gear knob up. it is hard but it is how it is taken off. now follow the picture in atch 2.) remove the hand rest cower, 3.) remove the panel surrounding the the hand brake lever (follow the arrows) 4.) lift up the little plastic, simply pull up. 5.) lift up the plastic surrounding 6.) you will se two screws when you slide the seat most forward, one on each side 7.) two screws, you'l see them when you remove the no 5.
Exactly the small plastic button on mine just snapped one day. Thought i could just get a new button. Nope new handbrake mechanism- £256 new from Reno or alot less from a breakers
