How to Remove Subaru E-Brake Cables

Today our one and only David shows us how to removes the entirety of the e-brake cables from a 2004 Subaru WRX (but this method should work for most models).

I've been trying to put the e brake clips back in for DAYS because I've been trying to slip them INSIDE the channel. Lol this video is the only thing on the whole internet that helped me lol

That Clip on the back of the sheild had me stumped. It's so innocuous.... I was looking for a much larger clip. Thank you so much. Great vid.

Trashed my shoes while replacing wheel bearing on 17 wrx. Nightmare job

Lowkey perfect video, short, comedic yet straight to the point and exactly what I wanted and no ads

Life saver on removing the cable from the hub

Great video! I'm doing a 5x114.3 hub swap on my 04 STI and this was very helpful as the rear knuckles I bought came with the entire knuckle, the lateral links, trailing arms, and ebrake assembly and I wasn't sure how the cables were disconnected inside the cabin.

Nice!! My right-side cable rusted and broke; I'd been inside both the center console and the e-brake end before, so that was already familiar, but I wasn't sure what I was in for with the areas BETWEEN those. This was a great preview for an upcoming sweaty eye-fulla-rust afternoon!

Thanks a lot Iam a truck mechanic and don’t know how to remove these in cars now I did 😂👍

[jeffmancuso]

Thanks the subaru in my shop was so rusted could not see the clip, Alldata just said remove from backing plate, glad i pay so much for it.

[robm]

Thank you so much! Been looking for awhile on how to do this.

My e brake “shattered” on my 2013 Subaru Impreza. Had a mechanic try to remove it but it’s still clicking on the driver side and felt all the way to the e brake handle (I live in Florida and do not necessarily need the parking brake and I’m broke) . Do you think removing the cables will solve this clicking noise?

[jorgelima]

Thank you for taking the time to do the video.

[guardrailhitter]

nice, now i can remove my own e-brake cables and make my subie roll down the hill!

[codered]

if the clip comes off and it dosent come out should you just pull on it hard

[LightningBolt]

Getting Subaru impreza soon, wish me luck

[saab_boyz]

Handy video, thought I was missing something, turns out my car is just rusted together😪

[SoulzStayClassy]

No "rev up those engines" ??? C'mon scotty, I can't start my day without that signature line!

[sidneyhirst]

Hey, money white. That baby screwdriver....No.
18v fuel angle grander and an 18v fuel 1/2 inch high torque impact is all you need in a wrecking yard!
