I find that cables like this are almost always better replaced with nice cable and housing that you buy at a bicycle shop. You can get housing with a teflon liner and use standard bike cables, or you can get some stainless steel welding wire and use that instead. Rust is the enemy of all this stuff and you can usually replace these parts with something that holds up better than the OE stuff. - ******************************* Jim Adney, jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, Wisconsin, USA ******************************* ------------------------------------------------ To unsubscribe, E-mail to: <type3-off@vwtype3.org> For more help, see http://vwtype3.org/list/
