Handbrake sleeve

[pat_986]

Bit of a small silly question, but thought I’d ask as one of you clever people might be able to help?
The sleeve over my handbrake handle slides forward and back by about 5mm. No more than that so I don't worry about it falling off but would like it to be as it should.
Does anyone know how I could fit it, I’m not sure how it is secured? I have attached a pic to show what I’m on about.
Cheers

There is a small metal spring inside the sleeve to hold it in place. From memory, you will need a very small, thin, flat head screw driver to push into the rear of the hand brake sleeve - I think there is a small notch in the plastic to allow entry. Just push it in and press down and the sleeve should slide off.

As Boydie says, Im sure you also need to have handbrake at 30 degree or so angle to get at it properly. Maybe time for the leather version with silver twin stitching LOL

Nice one guys, seems fairly straitforward, and yeah, like you say Khufu what a good excuse!
