Don't the brake lines travel through the tunnel? This could go right next to the heater lever. You'll be done in an hour. Uh, this is DEFINITELY not for emergencies. However, if your system is in good shape, these work really well for about $200 and no more cables. I hooked one up to the front of my Samurai so I could have front and rear parking brakes. Fancy units for about $400 are electric and will work on all 4 wheels. You can put the switch right on the gear shifter.
