    I put mine next to the tunnel right in front of the seat almost a bit under on the passenger side. With low seats in a channeld car you sit with your knees up in the air so the handle is not in the way.

    I mounted it on a angle so it was easier to pull.

    Here's pics of mine. The second pic you can just see the tip with it up only when looking straight down at it.

    I used a line loc on my old Towmotor forklift. Comes factory with one.
    NOT an e-brake, just a park brake. You need an e-brake you can grip and count on in an O~SHIT moment!

    Lots of older import trucks had the underdash T-handle style as well. What if the T handle came out of the dash somewhere nice, as opposed to below the dash? Wouldn't look bad at all, specially if it were chromed.
