		About a tenner each, and not too hard to change....even I managed it! 
	
	
	
Have to remove drums, and centre console, then basically all self explanatory.....tie some string round the old one though, to use for pulling the new one through.

		Assuming the Sedan handbrake cables are the same length as the hatchback, then according to Service Box they're £36 each  
	
	
	
 
	
		Are the first two in this link suitable? Thanks  
	
	
	
![]() http://www.micksgarage.com/braking-parts...9-dt/2476/ Are the lengths important or is there a good bit of adjustment in it? Also is it worth spending the extra few quid on QH over first line?

		Yes the lengths are important, and one should be longer than the other. 
	
	
	
I bought some from ECP and had no problems, not sure if they have ECP's where you are though, or maybe micks garage is the equivalent lol!  |
