Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I want to replace my parking brake with a new one. Does anyone have a link to some specific instructions on how to do this. Loren? Thanks. Walt

POST 2Original post

We filmed a parking brake swap for the next set of DIYer DVDs. Remove the 2 nuts for the cables. Disconnect the connector for the brake switch. Remove 4 13mm nuts that hold the brake lever in. That is it. When you put the new one in you adjust it with the 2 nuts so that there are 4 clicks. Jeff

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks Jeff, Is the trim removal fairly straight forward also? Walt

POST 4Original post

If you mean the the center console, yes. We have done so many that it is a 15 minute job. That is on the B&M DVD. We filmed the console removal again when we did the brake lever swap on Josh's GT2 a few weeks ago.

POST 5Original post

Jeff, I think that you sell the DIY DVD's on ebay (I believe) do you sell them on another website? Also, do you have a DIY on how to remove and install a new shifter ****? Thanks,

POST 6Original post

I found this link for the CD's (Jeff, I still don't OWN a dvd player) http://hverheyen.vssi-eda.com/box_pi...d_details.html

POST 7 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks Jeff, Not looking to spend $200 on DVD's to install a new parking brake. Will figure it out myself. Walt

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
