Momo Pitstop EBrake Handle how to
Okay, Here are some pics and commentary for you.
First I cut off the stock leather. Then took a dremel and shaved the rubber down all around. You don't want to cut it off cause the handle will have too much play. So shave a bit and test fit it as you go.

Then I took a metal shaving bit for the dremel and ground down this little bottom section to allow the Momo piece to sit lower on the handle since it is longer than the stock piece.

Next I took the actual handle and cutout 1/2in. piece on the bottom. Again to make it sit lower.

It probably took me about 1hr since I wasn't sure of what I should do to get it to fit. I topped it off with a Miata button. The part number is in one of DaleClark's posts. It was like $6. Good luck I get a lot of compliments on the handle.
