I saw this and did wonder, but.... it's a different number :(

Anyone know what breed of BX this is for and, at that length I'm guessing it must be upper portion?

I think that could be for a C15 van.

Way too short for an upper cable which must be around a meter in length. Looks too long for a lower, but it may be as one end looks like the part that goes into the gearbox?

At least judging from my 1.6s with BE3 g/box. I did manage to get a new upper some years ago, but it still has a juddery action at times!. I must take it off and relube it, and in process change a couple of dash bulbs!.
At least the pods with the plastic wing nuts are easier than the star washer type.... :wink:

Hi Mat,

The link works fine, although I found I had to sign into Google first, then come back to the forum and try the link. Otherwise Google throws either a 404 or 403 message.

Cheers,

Phil

Ah, that would explain it. Thanks for clarifying that.
