Touareg parking brake handle

thingiverse

In case your Touareg brake handle broke, here is a replacement part. It was designed in sketch up so it is a little buggy but it will work. I used Cura to slice it. I printed it with a 1 mm nozzle to get it done quickly but it will work with any nozzle. Also, I used petg for strength but pla will do just fine. To replace it, you need to get the fuze box cover off, then the trim above the headlight control needs to come out. After that there are a few screws. Then you can get the hole brake ansembly off. You'll need to get the old cable ball out of the old broken handle and install the ball onto the new one. I have done this once without removing anything but it is a little trickier, but possible. The cable hose needs to be winded and clipped into its place. If you remove everything for it to be easier you can disconnect the other end of the cable in order to have cable length to get the piece installed. After all you can connect the other end to the brake lever and put all togheter. It is not hard at all. So don't be scared to do it yourself
