Bit gay?

 

Yes.

Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooo! For one you'll ruin the lovely lines, and secondly you'll provide nice access to your engine bay to any local scrotes.

You can't do that to a nugget pal.

Just fix it properly - less hassle and probably quicker than devaluing your car with nasty bits

Is it a track car? If so, then yes, otherwise, totally gay.

You may need to get the cone shaped thingy that fits on the under-bonnet end of the cable, the bolt sheared on mine when I attempted to change it, it is not part of the cable assembly.

It is a bit of a ballache of a job replacing the cable I believe but yeah.. a better solution than bonnet pins!

cone shape thingy

obsolete :mad2:

It's been superseded - I'll have a look for a receipt with the part number later - At least it was still available in January when mine let go.

I don't know about that one - I needed the one at the battery end, that was obselete but a 2nd (more useful) parts person realised that it was supersceded - still not found receipt fror that part - looks like I've not put it in my file :roll:

 

Found the receipt for the cone thingy at the end of the cable - this is the number off my receipt, so I assume it's a part number but don't guarantee V535 823 555 it's described as N/STK NIPPLE and cost £6.11 on the 14th Jan this year.
