I seem to remember reading here that the handbrake constituted sharp edges for SVA, even though it was under the gaiter.

What has everyone done to get around the problem? If there is a problem!

I made one that covered everything but the handle and screwed it to the tunnel top. If it's between the seats it's out of the way anyway. I've heard of people failing with the handbrake mounted on the tunnel side but not on the top.

Sound good to me, going to sit the missus down at the sewing machine now!

wimp

bought me own sewing machine (2 quid on ebay) and did it meself. Inc a nice black handbrake and gear stick gaiter.

Pic shows door panel (cos I have doors!) rear bulkhead panel (behind seats - hole is for boot release) and tunnel cover with gaiters.

ps - the majority of the interior is black - its just these bits show the only red used in the car, in case you think it looks a bit 'technicolour'.

the pattern is based on something I saw in the coventry museum of road transport, on a pre jaguar 'swallow ss1' car. I liked the sunset effect. This is a retro style car, so I though id give it a go. CLearly out of place on a std locost tho!

I didnt use any glue at all - just zillions of staples!

Mines made of 16g ally, the staples would just bounce off!

I like the ashtray Mark, what did you liberate that from.

Everything is home made

what next folks - Cup holders

sorry lost track of the thread topic for a moment there.

I have heard of folks failing for radii under the gear lever gaiter and the handbrake gaiter, would be best to address the problem if at all possible rather than fail on something you 'wern't sure about'

Mark....

whats that smut paper you have under the tunnel cover? Its talking about 'boobs' by the look of it, and I can see an example of a pair in the pikkie......

we are not that kind of site ya know, despite alanb's best efforts
