Well, first i have a 6 point roll bar in mine and the e brake isnt an EMERGENCY brake anymore, more like a parking brake as the sport seats and side bar prohibit getting to it in an EMERGENCY.LOL
Plus any true sports car has it where it should be-next to the shifter.
Ive made my own interior for my 88 and im preparring to move the brake there so i was looking for the few people out there that take these cars to the CUSTOM level...
Thanks

I don't think they are really called Emergency brakes anymore are they? In teh last few decades I've always referred to them as parking brakes.

Gotcha - The custom interior would prohibit most folks here from having any suggestions - Do you have pics??? I am sure you could fab up a bracket and move it and all cabling to the tunnel...

Thinking back, I can't even recall C4 racecars w/ an e brake there (moved) :confused:

Good luck w/ the move - sounds interesting :cheers:

The Pontiac Fiero had it on the floor - Near the drivers doorway - Wait, you said REAL ;) ...nevermind :steering:
