Hi All

Alan, I think it is bespoke TVR, one of the few bits they didn't pinch from a major manufacturer.


No doubt a man of your calibre can "make" something else fit

[Alan Whitaker]

Hi Mike.
I only want the bit you grip with the release button not the whole unit.

LevenTechnology do (or did ) an ally one, but it's £63.30 inc Vat

Somebody on here was making ally handbrake handles & gear knobs about a year ago?

Steve J has a nice shiny one, may be worth asking him where he got it?
Or perhaps he made his own ?

[Alan Whitaker]

Thanks glen
Looks like it make one and cover it in leather.

I'm sure your will look better than TVR's attempt.

Alan, I bought an alloy one from ebay a while ago. Can't find a similar one at the moment. If you're interested in an alloy I'll try and do a bit more searching.

Hi Gary.
Bad eyes from looking at ebay for one, tonight going into the workshop and turn down some ally and trim it with leather, will post picture when done

I said it would be better than TVR's efforts and I was right.
