Hi Guys,

I'm in the process of replacing a snapped handbrake cable on a 1998 Corsa B but can't seem to get it to tension up.

In my haste, I pulled all the old cabling out before really looking what went where.

What I could do with is a picture of how it is all laid out from underneath the car. I'm not sure if I have the cables on the right way or if they're connected to the metal bar (equaliser bar?) properly.

I have the completely sheathed cable on the passenger side rear drum and the shorter one on the drivers side rear drum. Is that correct?

The motor factors also said that there were 2 sorts for the Corsa B depending on the chassis number. Is that correct?

Any help appreciated.

Thanks.

Anyone? Even if someone can nip out and take a pic from under the rear of the car then that would help!

I'll knock up a quick diagram of how mine is laid out.
