Fitting Evo X handbrake lever to VRX

Postby Mullet » Sat May 24, 2014 5:48 pm

Hi all

I've gone and purchased an Evo handbrake lever for my 2014 vrx.
problem is, I can't seem to get the current lever off. I thought typically hey just pulled off but it feels like it's glued or something. Was gonna wait till next time I'm at a dealer to ask for fitment but thought someone out there might've swapped one of these before?
any help appreciated in getting my existing lever off..
thanks :)

I've Pm'd lantourismo.
also tried twisting/pulling combination to no avail. no idea why they'd make a handbrake lever so tight :?

Hi mate your talking about the cover? Get a small flat head screwdriver and lever it from the underside gently while twisting and tugging it may help if it's a bit warm in the car too

It's glued, just keep twisting it'll come off. Mine came off pretty easy. Try heating it with hair dryer if it's giving you a hard time.
