Pedal Brake to Hand Brake?

When I was wiring up some floor lights i noticed that the control for the parking brake was still in the center console and is just cabled to the pedal. I HATE PEDAL BRAKES! I was wondering if making it a hand brake is as easy as getting the handle and center console and swapping the parts?

Thanks
