Re: [DML] Parking brake handle disconnected...

Daniel,
The brake handle attaches through the floor. Remove the four(?) nuts from
under the car and the whole assembly lifts right up. There should also be a
wire attached to it for the emergency brake light on the dash. By the way
the seat has only four nuts holding it in place so it is very easy to
remove, makes working on the car easier sometimes when you take the seats
out. Just remove the four nuts under the floor.
