Ooh - yes, good question, or is there any kind of boot we can put on ours? I don't like the plastic so much..
Or has anybody done any e-brake work - like maybe sliding it up a few inches so you don't have to move the console to lock it..

Haha, I actually just got finished reading that how-to. Looks nice, may be something I do not too far down the road.. The stock e-brake really pisses me off, you would think GM could've put a little more heart into it.

I don't like the Solstice at all either. I'd like to see someone make a nice quality Momo fit.

Technically theres no such thing as an E-Brake. Its officially a parking brake. Toyota lost a major court battle about this.
