Will this BMW walnut handle fit?

[keiron99]

I've been on the lookout for a walnut handbrake handle for yonks. Despite what one might be led to believe they hardly ever come up and I've not found any Xpart dealers with stock.

I understand some Freelander and BMW ones may fit.

There's a chap selling some BMW ones on ebay (http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=330293500692&ru=http%3A%2F%2Fshop.ebay.co.uk%3A80%2F%3F_from%3D R40%26_trksid%3Dm38%26_nkw%3D%2B330293500692%26_sa cat%3DSee-All-Categories%26_fvi%3D1). Does anyone know if they will fit?

Also, it looks a lot more pale than my walnut. Anyone know anything about the colour match?

Yes, it will fit. Have a look here for some pics: http://www.the75andztclub.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?t=25515

OK thanks. I've just bought one. I'm still not entirely convinced by the colour match but I wouldn't forgive myself for missing out again!

To be honest the walnut colours in the car are not a 100% match, well mine isn't anyway, the steering wheel dosen't 100% match the dash, the dash doesn't 100% match the plastic of the cup holders and switch panles etc or the handbrake grip, that's why I wasn't too worried about fitting the extra walnut panels from the walnut dash company which are slightly different again :icon_razz:

Is it me, or does the walnut handbrake cover look distinctly out of place among all the black placcy (and leather?) in the BMW pics in the link on the original post?

It looks SSSSSSSOOOOOOOOOOO much better in the cabin of a Gentleman's Carriage, - ie a 75!!!!
