john_a 0 Posted 6 hours ago Hi I've just signed up to the forum as I am in search of a bonnet cable to finish off my build. It's ben going since January and should have been a relatively simple drive train swap from a 20vt swapped Corrado into another (better) shell, along with the suspension, brakes, etc., however the bloke who was putting his name to it decided he didn't want to see it through and it's been left in the hands of the good folks whose space he was using. They are taking it on and it is (I believe) nearly finished, but I am finding it very hard to get a bonnet release cable. It's been dragging on too long and I am beginning to feel overwhelmed by it. Don't know how to put a picture in other than from a URL and I've not hosted it anywhere. Anyway 🖖 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

fendervg 32 Posted 2 hours ago Welcome to the forum- they pop up on eBay once in a while, or as above - a tandem gear shift bicycle cable - at the end of the day it's just a bowden cable cut to a certain length. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
_Matt_ 30 Posted 9 minutes ago Link to keep in your favourites https://www.autobahnautoworx.com/products/vw-corrado-complete-hood-cable-setup Sold out at the moment, but did have stock 1 week ago. Alternatively as others have said - bike cable and some trumpets from Phenix Engineering https://www.phenixengineering.com/products/corrado-hood-cable-horns However those trumpets are similar to, say these bike cable knarps and could probably use in their place: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/283640477366?_skw=cable+knarp&epid=4037617857&itmmeta=01J9HGQ1ENQEDVBXTVGJ2HZV7N&hash=item420a4a36b6%3Ag%3A3KkAAOSwPxpg-ysp&itmprp=enc%3AAQAJAAAAwHoV3kP08IDx%2BKZ9MfhVJKlVeqraj%2FM4XE2h5tJjNLmwFK7pspqCbS9SmImn5syttQGav5pRfst0v2x73Z4N44q2uvdvrELTgU2%2BVWkuLhnjbSMqQL0Erp2WDxoQhOYRa2IAvkq%2FwDBhtCx6G30XMiLf%2FhVznpFuMJ%2F7fI9XIM6zW2Fupor3ExE15Nf8NtE3f3hz2Kx%2BSZNUG3P6O4frRWhYcuE%2Fd4g%2FLDNPci4%2BviTzEpvPKMcT1O0E6O4fCHBm6w%3D%3D|tkp%3ABk9SR7CX3LDMZA&fbclid=IwY2xjawGGOn5leHRuA2FlbQIxMAABHQvpzy855Lg0Y47BywR3hvohUGPtZFEwN6zr4Hgvf0NpTd3H_O7zon9uzw_aem_LQ2JHxiIfgnVplC43OeVRg Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
