Alright, silly question. My existing parking brake rubber handle is pretty much...well, no long rubber. I've ordered a new handle...but nowhere in Bentleys manual or anything I've been able to find on-line describes how to replace it. Bentleys gets the closest by describing a "rolled pin"...which its shown going through the handle and Ratchet Bar.

So my question is this....wth is a "rolled pin", and how do I remove it??

The pin looks like this, only shorter.

I think I punched it out with a nail set. It would probably help to hit it with PB Blaster first.

Use a hammer to smack it with a drift slightly smaller. Use another hammer to back up the handle
