I'm after a rubber Gaiter for the handbreak. Any one got any idears where I could get one. Already done the local scrap yards, no good. Couldn't find any cars with that type of cover.

Thanks,
Leigh

You need to find yourself a Porsche 924 gear lever gaiter like this.

Cheers,

They do some interesting stuff on this site.

Jock,

Any pis?

It's somehow morphed from a handbrake to a gearlever gaiter Leigh, just check it's what you want. I can't think of any cars that use rubber for the handbrake but you could try some vans like merc etc. more of an industrial material.

You're right,

It was a handbrake Gaiter I was after, I wonder if it comes as standard in the GTS kit?
