Default 991 E-Brake button / Switch

Anyone replace the e-brake handle/switch on a 991?

Any idea if I can just pull it out and re-install the new one?

Can’t find info on this anywhere.

for reference, attached is a pic of the part I’m referring to (from the web)

I did it last year. A 5 minute job-snaps in and out. I bought my replacement on EBay.

Did you just yank it out?

any special tools or anything I should be aware of when pulling it out?

Just a trim removal tool.

Sounds easy enough..... I'm not sure I have one of those, but in the past a screw driver with some electrical tape on it, seems to have done the job okay.

If you get desperate, a short shoe horn also does the trick..
