    Need to replace the cable on an 02 Corsa 1.0, is this a straight forward job can anyone advise?

    Are the new cables the correct length so there is no cutting and messing involved?

    Cheers in advance

    Best leave it to someone who knows what to do.

    No offence but it looks like a complete balls would be made of it otherwise

    The handbrake cables will be car specific so should be a perfect fit once they are a decent brand.

    If your not familiar with what your doing though, its not the cables that will be the most difficult part, its removing, refitting and adjusting the handbrake shoes.

    I would be fairly confident enough taking on the job just wanted a heads up on it, car is sitting up anyway so no mad panic having to have it back on the road.

    What is a good make for a cable Doc? If I can get it this week I'll give it a crack this weekend.
