Great idea, it'd be nice if someone had a matching leather cover for that handle

Default Have only seen tacky aftermarket chrome and plastic stick on covers. You see them in the new bugs.

It is leather on the Baseball. Maybe the ALMS too? Not sure.

Default browsing at that Russian ETKA site, I found out that Audi actually makes one!

Yeap, that's right, there are three kinds of handbrake handles for the TT, one rubber, one leatherette and one genuine letaher. Each comes in a handful of colours.

Now I feel even more gutted seeing that some TTs are so well equipped in a way I never imagined. Sure, I didn't opt for heated seats and cruise control or sat-nav, but noone told me I could have had a leather handbrake for $30 more. :-(<ul><li><a href="http://194.87.53.210/audivw/vag5.asp?subm=%CF%EE%E8%F1%EA&amp;btsnr=711-50&amp;cid=229">http://194.87.53.210/audivw/vag5.asp?subm=%CF%EE%E8%F1%EA&amp;btsnr=711-50&amp;cid=229</a</li></ul>
