DiamondTony 10 Posted August 20, 2013 Hi all, my bonnet release cable snapped this morning so I need a new one. Can't find one anywhere except on US amazon and due to silly shipping laws they won't ship to me!! Does anyone have one? New or used I don't care, I just want to get under the hood!! Thanks :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
borachris 0 Posted August 21, 2013 Have you tried TPS/dealers? I got one from them towards the end of last year iirc Might be obsolete by now but worth a try if you haven't already, I think it was about £42. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MarkFoster 0 Posted August 21, 2013 If you can salvage the clips etc, I believe you can use a bicycle rear brake cable; possibly from a tandem to ensure you get enough length (you can always cut down the excess). Haven't tried it myself though so not sure if it's a straight swap... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
