Question Floor Mat

I really hate to ask this question as I show my ignorance - but

Is the only way to mount the floor mat I purchased from Brattons into my 1929 Coupe to remove the emergency brake handle?

Thanks
Mike

I can remove and reinstall my floor mat without touching/removing the emergency brake handle. Give Brattons a call.

I really don’t understand why you have to remove anything? You should just be able to put it in over the gear and brake handles. Than trim at seat if needed.

Enjoy.

Thanks - thats what I thought
I think the issue is my Emergency brake handle is not retracting all the way back.

That is another problem!

I have found it easier to apply the e-brake, this moves the e-brake handle closer to the gear shift.

And...fold the mat in half horizontally with the top and bottom towards you and place the holes over gear shift and e-brake.
