Anyone come a across a good ebrake handle option vs. the OEM. Don't like how big it is...looks out of place. hoping for something shorter\smaller.

Thanks

Lokar if you want to replace the whole assembly.

Quick question....Were you able to use the OEM ebrake cables, or purchased the Lokar cables and they are compatible? Also assuming you cut the ~6"x6" hole to use the Lokar floor mount, or did something custom?

I used part of the oem cable setup. The cable and the retaining bracket. Modified the capture bracket on the lokar unit and side mount the handle to the frame rails. I used the ffr center console alumni to mount the cables.
