Anywhere I can get a hydraulic handbrake installed in M2?

I'm interested in ripping out the mechanical handbrake and getting a hydraulic one installed. Is anyone aware of anyone who has done that with an M2 yet? Anyone know any shop in SoCal who could do this? I'm assuming most any race/tuning shop could handle upgrading the mechanical handbrake to a hydraulic one, but I'm not sure since I've never had the conversion done on a car before.

Purpose should be obvious, but it's for those Ken Block level slides.

You'll also need some new steering knuckles if you want to hold a slide that's worthy of a hydraulic handbrake.

Also, I haven't seen anything here about anyone doing a hydraulic handbrake, but I'm sure there's going to be some caveats. Like interior trim modifications.
