You'll have to check you local laws (probably easiest to call a shop who does inspections and ask). I know in VA you will fail inspection if it doesn't work.

I'm not 100% positive on this, but I think every State (that requires Inspection) will fail your car if the e-brake doesn't work. It's a safety feature that is required through every automotive manufacturer.

And to answer your post; Removing the e-brake cables will not benefit you in any way.

Re: removing e brake

its not like its soooo important that it should be illegal for him to break his e-bake, it breaks on its own

Re: removing e brake

I don't see how you permenently broke your e-brake just by changing the handle.

Jsut fix it... imo stupid not to have one.


and I never had my last 2 cars ever inspected since my state did away with inspection years ago.
