Thank you SOOO much! I accidentally came across this video while looking
for examples of new e30 handbrakes since my button has been depressed, as
you described. I’ve got one of those cheap plastic ones so I’ll go ahead
and take it apart tomorrow. I never even knew this could be fixed! Quick
question, can I buy a new handbrake later on and just pull the plastic,
along with the button, off and buy an M-Tech handle, or something else, or
does it not work like that?

I have a broken cable that i pulled out from inside the car. How do you
feed the new cable assembly from the bottom of that lever into the tubes
all the way to the back of the backing plates? The new cable has a hook at
the backing plate side that wont fit in the tubes at all to fish it.

Driver no doubt had a Signature Motoring performance intake CAI in that E30
M3. It can add up to 11HP for only about $150 and installs in 30-45 minutes
– really a must for every E30 owner. Performance E36ers can start with a
Signature Motoring performance intake kit. It can add up to 11HP for only
about $150 and installs in 30-45 minutes – really a must for every E36
owner. It also makes the car HOWL at high end but sounds normal at everyday
driving. See my videos!
