is it not possible to fit one from an e36/e46 3 sieres or a newer e39 5 or something like that. i'm sure someone would know if they would fit.

Cheers bud if anybody knows let me know so that i can get searching on ebay.

i am NOT saying that these would fit either way but it would be intersting to find out as it is a nice sutble mod that alot of people would probably do.

lets see what the experts come back with eh mate.

Well looks like nobody knows as yet will have to be bmw dealer to find out what m3 had.

I've got a leather handbrake handle fitted to my touring, came from a trashed M3 convertible. The only problem may be that because the leather is such a good fit it might only be supplied with the FULL handle mechanism from BMW. I manged to swap mine over as one of the mounting brackets was broken, bu basically it's just a standard handle with a leather cover.

the E34 and E36 ones are slightly shorter but will still fit ok.

the e30 ones are pretty rare.

if you want either drop me a PM my Dad can help you out.

I got an E30 one off an M3 awhile ago, think it was around Ԛ£25, but it fits straight on! Dammn tight squeeze tho, had to get M00ffles to do it in the car park at Donnington

Seriously tho they pop up on ebay from time to time!

I have a leather M3 handbrake grip Ԛ£20 +post. They slide on as a direct replacement for the council plastic grip.
