As I replaced my carpet in my good 'ol 94 Vert, I worked on popping out my center console exposing the handbrake. A very tight fit getting the console out but I saw in a YouTube vid on loosing the two bolts holding the handbrake down... which I did. I loosened them but did not remove, plus the back bolt has a metal plate over the bolt so completely removing is not possible. Just to get your bearings, the back end of the console screws into that plate which is hidden by the storage compartment.
Anywho, I started to re-tighten the two bolts. The one under the plate no problem but the forward bolt (closest to the stick-shift), will no longer tighten. I can't tell if it is striped or if there is a nut underneath is that is now lose? Can't imagine it would be a nut but that's why I am here asking. Plus, how would one even check as it is right over the drive train? Now, the hand brake wiggles and releasing the brake to its flat position is no longer a smooth action.
Anybody seen this/had this experience? Suggestions?
