What’s the technique to fit this over the handbrake with minimal removal of surrounding trim?
Was out yesterday making sure I could remove the handbrake grip (yep) and rear cover (yep) , and the half moon shaped section with the cigarette lighter socket (yep). All good.
Not so good is realising because of the longer dimensions of the tray I’m putting in compared to the much smaller half moon section I am removing, i can’t get the angle right to get it over the handbrake. It looks as though I either have to start removing the gear stick and it’s surroundings, or somehow get the handbrake handle to extend upwards pointing nearer 90 degrees towards the roof.
I am not intending to remove the lower console, will drill holes or tape the new tray.
Couple of pics attached to illustrate the issue (i didn’t manage to take pics when I had the handbrake grip and covers off in case anyone thinks I’m trying put it on like this....).
Thanks
