What do you want to do? Just take it off? Why? Are you planning to make a custom hand brake boot?

It needs to be cut off because it is one piece. Good luck!

I think you guys are referring to the hand brake handle though. What about the whole hand brake cover. Is that what you're asking PseudoChrist? I though that maybe you wanted to put on a custom e-bake cover. Anyway, I think the whole thing can be taken off. I'm kinda busy, so I can't try it now. If you want though, I can try to take it off tomorrow and I could get back to you. Let me know...

The only related DIY there is "Replace Stock Shift Boot (or removing the grey coupling on the stock boot)". We're talking about the emergency brake boot. The one made out of plastic. Good link for taking out the center console though.

Allright i finaly got it, it takes some elbo grease but it just slides off so to say. You have to angle it a bit and pull up then out.

Ah, see... Sorry dude, I couldn't get to doing that today. I knew it had to come off though. So are you going to make a custom e-brake cover or what?
