Default handbrake handle for newage

Bought a momo handbrake handle for my 2003 WRX, but before I cut the old one off I noticed that the length of the shaft (ooer) would fould the centre console.
Does anyone know a manufacturer that will fit a newage, I'm looking fo a chrome or polished handle, simoni etc

Cheers

This is listed by Subaru for the 03 WRX & is in my Stealth Wagon.

Momo Carbon Effect Handbrake Lever
Part No. SACC2537



You can just make out the tip of it at the bottom of the pic.

Thanks Mark, do you have any other photos or measurements of the length of the handle, as that is exactly the same handle as I have, but it looks like the bit the gaitor attaches to is too big (wide) and when I put the handbrake down it will foul the centre console

Mike it does rest on the opening rather than dropping right down into it. I mentioned this to the Subaru workshop manager & he said it was ok & they adjust the handbrake cable to allow for it. I have had no issues with the handbrake binding or having too much/not enough travel.
