hang fire mate. the cable is steel. a new one will do you no harm but the cable has a steel square drive bit on the end. i rekon this has worn at the plastic female part to the assembly which it goes into. if this is the case you need the clocks or that plastic peice. i have a set already out but i havnt looked at them. what mileage has yours done? these are displaying 1oo,ooo plus iirc.

if the female part comes away i'd send you that with the cable for teh same as a cable alone :)

£8.50 plus postage. i can stick it on my ebay for ya mate.
