Handbrake lever gaiter mounting
2006 V70
The plastic frame on my handbrake gaiter where it fits into the centre console is broken. Any ideas where I might find a replacement ? There are gaiters available but none include the plastic frame. Or any other solutions to fix the gaiter in ? Thanks John

Hi.
If you can put up some pics of your broken part we might have a better idea on how to fix it .
Failing that it might be worth looking on e-bay etc. to see if there is a second-hand one about . The Breakers such as Volvex , Huddersfield Volvo Breakers are always worth a phone call . |

I've glued it in place at it seems ok for now. Obviously not ideal as will need to remove it again for any handbrake adjustment.

I use Velcro so that it can be removed easily when adjustment is needed
