will the hand brake for the centre console bolt straight in? and will i need a different hand brake cable for the centre console hand brake

Handbrake will work and there should be the spot for it in the transmission tunnel, just covered up with some sound deadner.
The only thing is, there will be a hole in the middle (covered up by the console) because the cars which had the handbrake in the middle had a moulded bit underneath for the handbrake rod to pass through to be bolted up to the equaliser.

Mine has a hole because the handbrake mounting surround under the car is not there, but I cant say Ive noticed that there is hot air coming from the handbrake area. You might need to cut the carpet slightly, although when you cut it, dont cut the carpet off, but cut a flap so the carpet can sit there which may help.

If your worried about hot air etc, when you remove the right hand side handbrake lever, it will leave a hole and some gaps. You can put a plastic plug and cover up the hole or make a metal bracket to cover the gaps.

I havent done it and it doesnt really bother me at all.
