Somehow I don't think I'd want an e-brake ('e' for 'emergency') handle to just be held on by some dinky setscrews.

The only thing I mind about my stock cover is that it doesn't clip together right anymore. But I found another in a junkyard that does, so problem solved

Miata wood one, matches my steering wheel and it slips right on. Nice and tight with no mods, trimming or set screws.
