Series 3 Soundproofing and Handbrake

bignez · Oct 28, 2011

Hi All my first post.
Just bought series 3 88 i was looking at site Wright off road for sound proofing, any coments on it would be welcome. however in his photos he has a small handbrake lever rather than the normal fitted to mine. being a big chap this would be good for me any one know if its a common modification.

Don't know about the soundproofing, but if you can provide a link to the picture of the handbrake, someone may be able to give more help.

i know you can flock your interior and then lay your original carpets, vinyl peices back over the top, used it in my civic worked a treat.

I'm tempted to do it to mine

Would go nicely with my RR seats, plus it'd hide the body filler and welds inside the cab .. and girls might want to get in it then

With sheep skin lining, get all the sides done in cream leather, you would have yourself a luxury liner, get a nice mahogany coffee table sorted

Hello and welcome, not seen the picture, but if the handbrake you discribed just pokes straight out of the seat base, it will probably be a series one lever.
As fitted to a series one, it's easy to reach down to floor level to pull it on, as you won't have a seat belt on. Fit it to a series three, you may find you get slightly strangled as you lean forward to pull it on as the belt inertia reel locks up. Hope this helps.
