Hi All,
Three options, first have a new handbrake made to the right length, second option to make a new piece that connects the handbrake to the bit where the cable passes round, or run 2 cables and make a new handbrake attachment for 2 cables.
Any one any ideas on this??.
I think I can get them mady by Cable-Tec or Speedy Cables

Hi Mike
Are the Granada cables a lot longer?

Long time ago but I'd guess 10 - 12 inches?

how short is the cable you have to joining the handbrake bracket /

I have used a turnbuckle as this is an easy way to adjust the cable too.

Can photo it maybe tomorrow night?
