Default Screw for the ebrake handle?
I don't know how it fell out, but i noticed the handle on the e brake felt loose, and sure enough the screw that goes on the side was missing, anyone know what size these are?

thanks

if you are talkin about the 2000 model in ur sig then its a rivet....i know this for a fact, same thing happened to me except the whole e-brake handle came out and i had to tear the center console apart to fix it, but yes it is a rivet and not a screw.

^^Correct. It is a rivet, not a screw and I haven't felt one that didn't feel loose...

"Take piece of scrap black plastic of the appropriate thickness and inserted it between the handle and the arm. This worked best on the side without the rivet."
