Sister has my previous car.....2008 R56 Cooper.

Long story short, I had a pal that fixed the radio many years ago.....but no longer in contact with him.
Sister is saying the surround of the handbrake and the gear stick is loose, I know he snapped a clip there previously but shes saying its feeling looser.....and that the gear stick feels loose.

Any way to fix these at all?



thanks
