Thanks really bad luck - when you get the cable you'll need this thread.

Mine broke on the way back from Pistonfest. The best I could find out is that it's a TVR special cable, but a Range Rover cable would probably fit, It'll just be a bit too long!

I ended up getting one from Newtown TVR (in Wales) who sent it to me that day. Cost about £55 in all.

Fitted it myself, took about 40 minutes. Just remember to tie some string to the old cable and pull the new cable through with it! Otherwise it's a total nighmare, as it has to pass through the wing.

Good luck....
