Handbrake Cable Retaining Clips
When I stripped my car to refurb the rear hubs one of the handbrake retaining clips snapped and the other is pretty shot. I'm struggling to find replacements so was wondering whether I can run without them or is there something else I can use to keep the handbrake cable in place - they are a tight fit anyway

No local dealer so I'll have to pay a fortune in postage then
He keeps getting at me too, but I'm manic with work and only got back into the country Saturday
I'm off next week so I'll see what I still have but essentially for the HID lights you just need to split the live feed, find a 9006/9007 connector for the main beam and splice into the HID loom for the dipped beam. On the STI lights there appears to be circuitry inside the light which means the main and dipped stay on together. For non-HID lights you need to splice the dipped directly into the light loom as there is no intermediate connector and if you want the dipped and main to come on together you use the morette multi relay arrangement so both come on simultaneously
