E-Brake leather cover - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

I have never liked the cheap looking plastic E-brake handle. I ordered this from England and it was pretty easy to install. It helps to loosen the handle mechanism mounting nuts to get the leather glued on. They have the different colored thread stitching too. Now it looks classic like it should.

Who makes it?

Like I said above, he has other colors of stitching. Warning, be patient, this is coming from England and it has to pass through customs (2-3 weeks).

Interesting and thanks!

Thanks, I ordered the one with red stitching yesterday.

Can you post more angles?

I ordered one, but it came rather large, and didn't really fit right. I took it to a shoe shop nearby and he got the leather cut much closer to how it should look. I'll post pics tomorrow.

I've gotten positive remarks on it though, people thought it was stock. So it works really well if it fits.

that looks way better than the cheap stock handle!

As I said, I had to have this cut to fit as snugly as this does. It's not as simple as putting on a sock.

they use to have a shop DSV vettes (texas) or something like that use to make them for Camaros. haven't heard anything about them in a while though.

SSEssence · 11-17-2016, 03:00 PM

I got mine in the mail and it was way too tight. I could only get it on halfway, so I messaged the seller and he is sending me another one, I hope it fits this time. Did you guys just tuck the leather at the bottom or actually tape/glue it down?

JT Camaro · 11-17-2016, 04:18 PM

anyone get an orange one? IE does it match the stock stitching?
