I originally used a Capri clutch cable , but due to me over tightening the pivot at the pedal end it snapped on me :o , so upon going looking for a replacement at short notice at my local motors factors ( was in a hurry to replace it) I found that the clutch cable from a Ford P100 also fits, its slightly longer but can be mounted to fit etc.

My sierra cable was practically new so I'm adapting it. This is the end I've made for the pedal side.

Thats a proper job , its a shame you cant just buy them. The ones in our diy cable repair kits only have two tiny grub screws in them . ok to get you home but do pull off in time.
