im sure i've got the right BE3 cable because the bulkhead fitting is spot on

but how does it attach to pedal,i snapped my last cable because i had the wrong type clutch

 

wich left me with white plastic bit broken??

poop, and this one has the angled plastic bulk-head fitting !

 

argh the Frenchness of it all .Off to the shops for me then

I ordered up a new BE3 1.6 cable from ECP, the pedal attachment was the right one

 

But does it look a little short pic ie were it goes along the subframe and has extra padding on the cable

 

So would i be right in thinking ...

 

Rubber bung bulkhead = 1.6

Plastic angled bit = 1.9 ...i only say this, as i have both on BE1 cables.

 

Cheers

I recently fitted a new cable to a friends 1.6 with a Be3 & the new cable was a little on the short side but it fitted Ok in the end.

 

I think some places stock two lengths of clutch cable & the shorter one is default first send.

 

I got a Be1 cable from GSF a few years ago with the angled end & it wouldn't fit my car at all. Went back to swap it for a Be3 with the old cable & they didn't stock any with the right bulkhead grommet.

 

Got a refund, went to a different french car spares place & got the right cable straihht away without them even seeing the old one (& for less).
