They gave me a bit off just for asking, and even if it's a few bucks that you save, its a few bucks towards another tire.
I ran Chase Bays lines, and have everything run and hooked up, I just need to mount the actual handbrake. I don't have a welder, so I kind of plan on cutting a piece of 16ga steel plate to fit around the gearshift, bolt it down with 4 bolts/nuts, and then have it sized so it hangs off to the left a bit to mount it right where the one in that video is mounted. I'm trying to keep my trim too, since I have it all painted.
As for the caliper brackets, I welded on premade brackets- Not the little ears, but ones that had both holes and were connected. I don't even remember the brand, they were like $45 or something from some little canadien company I think.
Jrcane- When you welded it there, was it a flat surface you welded the hydro to? Maybe I can just drill holes and bolt it right there? I need to pop the trim and insulation off and take a look, I'm actually planning on looking at it today.
