Bonnet release cable

[Tabbi 10]

Hi, I need a bonnet release cable for my Rado.

 

Please PM me if you have one you want to part with.

 

Thanks.

I'm after one also, the only place I could find them was from the states and was looking at about $90 delivered. Any where that supplies these in the U.K. ?

it doesn't half Ian - $92 discount - odd

 

those are the people that make the metal headlight adjusters, I would be keen to hear feedback if someone orders from them

[Tabbi 10]

Just been offered a second hand one for £80 delivered. Included handle and clip.

 

Sounds expensive to me does it not......?

[Tabbi 10]

My cable has snapped but i am currently opening the bonnet my removing the grill and pulling two little handles at each end of the cable if that makes sense.

 

Is there anyway i could modify this to work without buying a new cable?

[p0l1wrath 10]

I modified mine by swapping the push pull cable for Bowden, and then modified the handle with the v brake parts from a push bike I had lying around, worked wonders, takes a lot of grief and hasn't moved a mm (I marked it with tippex!)

 

Will try and get a picture later, but my memory is horrendous...

PM sent Tabbi,

By the looks of things you just need the main cable without handle, clip and front cross over cable that joins both locks?

Tomorrow morning ì'm checking a scrapped 'raddo so i'll check and see if the cable is still intact.

[Tabbi 10]

Thanks.

I'm sure i've got one for you mate, i'll check later on and snap a few photos.

Tried a 'generic' but it has not been a success. Pulling a long cable tie attached between the release springs and sticking out through the VW badge, I tried ordering from tdn but they refused postage to my address. Not sure why.

Anna at vw heritage had some made up.
