The hooks on rear lower wishbone that hold epb cable
Does anyone know if it’s possible to get the hooks that sit on top of the rear wishbones and hold the handbrake cable secure? Just found one of mine is snapped! And the cable is free to move around.
Also is it possible to change them in situ?
Thanks

Yes, Advanced Factors stock them.
I believe they can be changed without removing the cables. Someone will confirm.Richard

I have these and after close inspection I noticed that the hook on the driver side is wearing away the outer sleeve of the hand break cable and the steel protection is now exsposed. So I unhooked it . The hand break cable simply slips over the hook no need to remove the cableDicovery 3 (Rimini Red)

Be careful if you unhook it or they can touch the wheel! And wear the outer that way! That’s how i noticed It!

Point taken, I will have a look see. And I have a scout around looking to know if replacing the cable is a big job using the good ol search bar Dicovery 3 (Rimini Red)

The cables are quite expensive I think so as it works perfectly and is just the outer weather sheath that’s rubbed I’m going to wrap it up again with some gorilla tape or similar I think!

Rotate the sleeve to a different position. It can when others can't,
It will when others won't,
It goes where others don't.
