Overview
A fresh grip for a worn handbrake.
The handbrake handle is one of the most-touched parts in the car, and it shows wear fast — shiny spots, scuffs and a loose feel. This is the factory black handle VW fits to the MK7 Golf family, so it fits and feels like new.

Doing the handle? It's a good time to swap the handbrake boot too.

FAQQuestions, answered.
Will it fit my Golf R?
Most Golf Rs have an electronic parking brake button, not a lever, so they don't use this handle. Send us your VIN if you're unsure.
Is the boot included?
No — this is the handle only. The boot is sold separately.
Is it an OEM part?
Yes — it's an OEM Volkswagen part, 5GM711503BKLA.
Does it fit MK7.5 (2018+)?
Yes, on MK7.5 cars that still have the pull-up handbrake lever.
Is it hard to install?
No. It's a slide-on handle — most people do it in a few minutes with the boot pulled up.
What's the return policy?
Uninstalled and in original packaging, returns fall under our standard refund policy. Get in touch before sending anything back.
