as above,
in the subaru accessory catalogue the momo lever is £120. demon tweeks they are about £55, and more of a colour choice. called demon tweeks last week and they said they can do one, called them today and they said they don't do the adaptor to fit the end of the lever for the 03 fitment. also it doesn't make it very clear if you need to order a gaitor. if anyone has fitted one i would be greatful for the details and fitment requirements.

oooh sorry bah,
it didn't come up with the links at the side the first time, but yes , loads of pics, it doesn't look like there is a button on your car ?, do you think that is what they mean by saying there isn't the end ring bit that will fit the 03 ?????. i see also that you have to strip the leather off the lever to fit it first and that you do need the gaitor as it doesn't go back into the armrest enclosure enough to do without one.

In answer to your question....

Demon Tweeks etc will NOT be able to sell you a Handbrake adaptor. MOMO list one for the bug eye cars apparently.

I had to cut the leather/rubber sleeve off of my handbrake and I then constructed an "adapter" from what was left of the factory handle. The MOMO handle then fitted snugly over this, and the gaiter IS required to hide the silver metal handbrake lever sticking out of your centre console, much smarter anyway!

Edited to add.... I'm not sure if MOMO make the MY01 - 03 adapter exclusively for Subaru........?

Nitosport doi the full intirior, all exchange panels they send you the new kit and you send them back your old one's... costs vary on how much you do.....

Those pix were before i adjusted the momo cover so the button would pop out..

Once you get the momo cover on you need to adjust the allen screws too get the cover cental over the handbrake so the button works without jamming.
