i used a corsa/combo gear and handbrake gaiter. can be found free in scrap yards, i pulled mine out of my van. they fit great and clip in so no unsightly bolts or screws. i will try and get a pic uploaded tomo.

Do you need a gaitor at all? We have taken the rubber handle off the Sierra handbrake, so it's nice and thin, cut a thin slot on the tunnel cover GRP so it just fits, and it looks quite nice and fits well to the lightweight racer type image of the VortX I think...
