Hydraulic e-brake install

Yeah that's what I noticed under the hood. Where do you reckon the best place to tap into that would be? Could I utilize the OEM e-brake lines?

The OEM e-brake, like basically every (normal) car ever, isn't hydraulic. It uses cables.

You'd have to tap into the brake line, probably at the rear wheel, at the hard line's end point.

Not worth the effort in the least.

Edit: Unless you're building a drift car. In which case, go for it.
