After a MOT fail on handbrake, I stripped the brakes down (1998 Omega Elite 3ltr Auto) and found the spring clip on the handbrake lever assembly was broken. Vauxhall main dealers don’t even show this on the system, just the two parts of the lever assembly.  Has any one got a workaround for this part?

can u not just get another lever from a scrap yard, should not cost more than £8, and only 10-15min to take off. and they all same.

Don't recall such a spring on mine - but then it was dark, and Mr DTM was doing most of the work, and left me to do the simple jobs like file down the pads

I have a omega b saloon 2.5 V6 that I have decided to break will the handbreak fit off that, if so open to offers

Sounds about right.

Its finding a scrappy local to me with an omega in stock. if any one with a spare lever assembly willing to post, Im willing to pay.

Its only purpose is to aid assembly.
