Ok ok, stop bragging about the Puma heater!
That looks like a great mod, however.....where do you put your left foot on long journeys  QRZ 2e0vpf |

I did the same on my td5 110 by fitting a RRC handbrake
Great modification.. Only one part needed and the existing handbrake cable was used |

I used a RRC HB lever in my 90. Sits nice and tght against the seat and it is so easy to reach. Now my legs have room to move about in the footwell, specially as I now have a pedal missing as well

The existing brake cable will work but you'll need to adjust it out a bit |
