NRG Innovations HK-800MC Neo Chrome Finish GEN 3 Hand Brake

Solid 5 stars: it’s a nice hunk of aluminum, and the button is aluminum as well. The set screws are decent steel or alloy metal, definitely strong enough that the aluminum will strip threads before the screws if you crank it down too tight.You have to understand what you’re getting into, though. Reading other reviews and you’ll find all the negative reviews are because it didn’t fit or was hard to install. Very true, but not a fault of this product.I put this in a ‘94 Honda Accord wagon today, took about an hour, but needed some modification to fit my car.Required For This NRG cover: a round brake handle, solid all the way around 6” down from button.If your handle is square or oval, she ain’t gonna fit.If your handle has a 3/8”(10mm) gap on the bottom, like mine did, you will have to modify it, or just use 2 screws and hope for the best, your handle may not be thick enough to secure it without shims.My modification: [i took an old valve cover washer, cut it in a 2/3 crescent shape, hammered it into a curve, and used that metal shim to make a solid surface for the bottom set screw to grab onto. Worked great]Note that if your e-brake handle is open on the bottom, you could use a non-directional handle instead (NRG has some). This model has finger groves on the bottom that prevent you from rotating all 3 set screws to land solidly, it looks weird if you rotate it.Button length: the button is made long enough to cover many different sizes. So if your button is short (like mine) use some small washers to make the button fit. Upset that you’d have to add a spacer? Imagine being the person that had a long button, and find the NRG too short! There’s no way you could make the button longer... so that’s why some (maybe most) of us have to add spacer.So it’s great for what it is. If it doesn’t work for your application this cool chunk of metal can’t be held responsible.

Haven't installed yet. Will update. I have 1993 Honda Del Sol.

Quality was good, just doesn't fit over an Xterra ebrake.

Little finagling but it worked out great. Looks awesome, and It’s not up to amazon but I do wish they made a gloss black one, but it’s still great. Comfy stylish and functional

Had to cut down a 10MM socket to use as a bushing so that the release button would work, only 2 of the 3 set screws will be usable for a Miata, and my finish started flaking off after 3 months and I park it in a garage and only drive it a few hundred miles a quarter.

First, I have to say that this NRG e-brake handle is constructed really well and looks phenomenal. Unfortunately, it does not fit in my 2014 Subaru Crosstrek XV. The button does not fit over the existing OEM button and the grip is too short and pulls free of the pleather boot when disengaged. It is a shame, I really like the look of this piece and thought it would accent my car beautifully. Check your cars compatibility before you buy.

Fits a 2006 MINI Cooper, with a little work.You must shim the button.. i placed about a 3/8 length of 1/2 inch steel rod (with a little added electrical tape to fit snug) inside the button. Then wrapped some duct tape over the hand brake shaft, so the new handle fit snug. 3 Allen screws securely fasten the handle to keep it in place.NRG handle looks and feels better than the stock handle. I wish the handle came with some shims to go inside the button, but then the price would be more. I'm very pleased with this.

It didnt fit around the manual brake handle. Tried grinding metal and still wouldnt fit. tried bending it still wouldn't fit. Looks great on my passenger floor!

Bought this for my 95 Honda Del Sol, with a few VERY MINOR Modifications made it work and looks nice :) P.S this was not mode for a Del Sol so I took my chances to try it out lol! Wish they made one to actually fit Del Sol
