aluminium hand brake button!

Car  Clio
Hi guys does anyone know how to get the button out and how to fit it into another car? I want to get one from a scrap yard but i cant figure out how to get the b**tard out!!

Cheers guys, Mike.
 
I got a flat headed screw driver and prised the old grey plastic one out. Made a nice mess of the old one, but doesnt matter as you have a nice shiny one to replace it with.
 
lol yeh, erm... apparently they just pull out but i cant see how, they seem firmly fastened to me :S!!
 
Screw in the middle of it an pull!!!

I've got a spare alloy button if you want to purchase it mike ;)

Oh oh oh, if he doesn't I sure as hell do. How much you want for it? Been after one for aaaages, want a gearstick top as well if you've got one too.
 
You can take you normal black button out with a flat head screw driver but it will damage the button not that it matters if you puttingthe silver one on

To take the silver one off push a flat head screwdriver up the bottom of the plastic hand grip (the part that your four fingers normally go on if you're applying the handbrake) push the driver up hard and the plastic sleeve will start to slide off very slowly as it very tight. Once the sleeve starts to move up towards the dash board it will reach a point where it pushes the silver button off without damaging it at all
