Just bought an aluminum e-brake handle that comes with a chrome button. I can't figure out how to remove the oem black plastic button! Can anyone help?

Take the boot off and cut the plastic tie that holds the boot and the handle together. Then you can remove the existing handle by pulling it and install the new one.

Reverse engineering works in this case. Look at the button you are about to replace it with and look at where it attaches. If you can't figure it out, grab some plyers and rip it out.
