Hi there, this might get helpful for people with steering wheels, especially for drifters! I created simple but clever E-brake and wanted to share it with you, so maybe I will inspire you to build a better one or same as mine. 👍

1st step is to change button settings, and pick the one you will use, I used the right one on the bottom of the gear console... dont know how to call it.. :) But here are some pictures so you will get the idea eventually! 👍

As you can see this simple mechanic works just perfect and the rope adds more natural feel to it.

Rubber bands gives 2 things, 1st is more natural feel and more you pull you get more resistance, and second thing is that it goes back in original position when you let go!

You can see my wheel setup as well, very compact and good for small rooms, can be used with chairs or beds..
On the bottom you can see simple scheme I made in Paint ;)

I was so expecting a couple of feet of wire, relocating the shifter button to the end of your handbrake.
I like the rope and bands to add feel....
 
I am thinking about something similar for the t500rs thanks for the idea :D
