sorry if this is in the wrong place,

Well the story goes, i took my car for a mot and failed on the electronic parking brake, and we all know it costs over 500 to replace :devil: so i decided to bite the bullet and look into converting it.
Well i went to my local scrap yard and got a center console, handbrake lever and there is 2 tubes in the rear foot well for the cables to thread into.
fitted the console, handbrake and tubes today.
Will fit the cables tomorrow when they arrive, from what i can see they should fit like a glove.
all for the total cost of 43.80 :d
