Feeling really pleased with myself after removing a bulky pair of XJS seats from my S3 and replacing them with a slim line pair of TVR seats (thanks Phillpot). Time now for a test run, start her up, blip the throttle and "ping". Throttle cable snaps, look down in the foot well to see a little plastic mushroom shaped thing and a rubber grommet and a bit of frayed cable peeking out from the bulkhead!!!!

Made a couple of fruitless enquiries today; any body got a spare they would be willing to part with or know the whereabouts of one or offer any suggestions?

I've just had to get a new throttle cable - I ordered it from Speedograph Richfield in Nottingham, it cost £50, which I thought was quite expensive (!), but there wasn't a lot of choice out there. Delivery was really quick, I sent the outer and broken inner to them on a Monday and had the new one back 4 days later.
