Has anyone had any experience or luck with finding a decent hand brake cover and/or boot? It drives me NUTS that my 2024 SX has a manual hand brake instead of the automated/button version. It looks like crap in an otherwise really nice car. It’s just an ugly stick of plastic and I was curious if anyone found a certain model of handbrake cover (w/ boot) that made it look a lot better. I can’t find a single one designated for the Seltos, specifically.

I thought all SXs in the US, as elsewhere, had the button hand brake. Here in Australia only the two lowest /model/trim levels have a manual lever - all other levels have electronic with auto hold. Can someone in the US clarify..? Are you sure yours is an SX..? My understanding is thats the second top US model..?
Yeah, I agree, the lever looks fine to me too. I doubt a boot is going to add much je ne c'est quois..? Actually it's just not designed to have a boot - or they'd have given it one, knowing Kia.
I think it’s less of a “boot” and more of a “dust cover” - at least that’s how a lot are advertised. Just keeps stuff from dropping down in there and in my opinion, looks a little nicer. The textured plastic just looks unfinished when it’s surrounded by the leather accents and gloss finish plastic details.
