Handbrake lever grip?
We've had the van for ages but the handbrake lever seems to be missing a plastic grip or cover at the end of the handle that you hold. A description or photo would be much appreciated, particularly with the MOT looming, don't want the MOT man to hurt his ( or her) hand! There is nothing obvious on vw parts emporium. Thanks in advance.

Re: Handbrake lever grip?
mine too! I ended up using some rather fetching brown bicycle handlebar tape that matches the carpets perfectly! 
No idea what the original grip would have looked like tho I'm afraid.

Re: Handbrake lever grip?
Thanks guys! (Fishing rod grip isn't so far off, the van lets in so much water it's like being in a river sometimes. Still, might stick to VWs intended grip anyway, just to conform).
