s3 throttle cable

[jned2]

My throttle cable snapped yesterday at the peddle end, I've managed to botch something together using electrical block connectors and some Bowden cable so that the car can be used. Just wondering does anyone know if there's a cable available with the correct fitting at the engine end?

Thanks for the help and suggestions, in the end I fabricated a bit of spare 10mm aluminium rod I had hanging about to come up with a solution. Hope ths makes sense; at the engine end using a 3cm length of the rod I drilled out a hole using a 6mm bit for the "ball" of the throttle arm to fit, the original "clasp" then slid back over to hold it in place. At the other end I drilled up the centre of the rod with a 3mm bit so the cable could slide in, then drilled 2 holes for self tappers to hold the cable tight. I used a solderless nipple at the peddle end. Fingers crossed it appears to be working OK.
