Thinking about getting rid of the foot pedal E brake and putting it in a more usable location while im at things


The lokar setup is nice, i like the handle and might get it, But what do i do as far as cables and brackets? Any other nice looking cheap handles?

ANy pics of what you guys did are allways welcome :SNSign: I plan on using a B&M shifter and not having a console....Unless theres someway to use one with a console like the short humphugger maybe

I used the Lokar handle and their universal cable kit,works good but is a little hard to pull.

I just pu in a center console and don't want to loose that. Has anyone ever put in a handle mounted width wise in front of the drivers seat. Maybe a bad idea but would give me more room? Please let me know if this is a horrible idea.
