Handbrake cables, heater matrix, Ph1 16v fogs
As title really.
I'll be shortly in need of a good condition heater matrix. I suppose there's nothing fundamentally wrong with mine that I'm aware of, but the car has been stood unused without an engine and any coolant flowing through the matrix for the better part of two years so I'm guessing it'll be past it's best, what with two years' worth of cold winter air getting through it, so I want to get it changed as part of the dash swap. I also need handbrake cables. I'm planning to move the car to the garage soon and at present there is no way of actually securing the car and it's free to roll.... not really a good mode for a car to be in on the back of a trailer. I'm also looking to get the 16v bodykit sprayed and fitted at long last, but the 16v front bumper I got from Chris three and a half years ago is devoid of any lighting. The bumper-mounted indicators seem easy enough to come by, but sets of foglights are like hen's teeth by comparison and I'll be damned if I'm paying David Kirk at K-Tec a whole fifty pounds for some. I'd prefer a set of clear fogs as I'm trying to keep the colour palette to a minimum but I'd take a set of yellow ones in the interim. Thanks in advance folks.

Heater matrix, I'd be looking at the factors / usual suppliers. You'll want to get new seeing as its a pain in the bottom job to do.
Handbrake cables are ALWAYS being flogged on eBay, any good? If you're after R19 ph1 fogs then they do occasionally come up on ebay too. Indictors and side repeaters are cheaper because of course they are shared with the R5 |

Well I was planning a trip to GSF for the first two anyhow, just thought I'd chance asking on here as you never know what folk have got laying about!
Is the handbrake cable a one-piece item? Or is it in sections like it is on my Vecs?
