It was never a standard fitment, and I don't think there was a UK
contemporary after-market system either but there is/has been since - a
locking bolt locks the lever in reverse - however it does mean cutting
things about a little. Another UK (at least) commercial device slips over
the handbrake and locks to the gear lever preventing either from being
moved.
