Does anybody have a Fiat X1/9 handbrake grip? or know where I might source one?
The one I have that came with the h'brake assembly (which I have just re-furbed) is brittle and has split. I don't want to buy a complete lever assembly just for the grip.

I removed mine and fitted an black anodised aluminum one. Looks and feels much better.

Hi - started to look at those but so far could only find a cheap Chinese version that will need sleeving to fit.
Where did you find yours?

Was an aftermarket one for a Lotus Elise. From Ebay but seller not active anymore by the looks of it.

Internal diameter of the Elise S1 or S2 seems to be the same as the external diam of the X1/9 handle with the plastic grip removed.
