Apologies for double post, but would it be wise/possible to replace the actual cable bit and reuse all of the mountings? I am under the impression theyre in alright condition. I am finding a lot of listings for the cable and none for the rest

Oh motherf.... that explains it. istg how hard would it have been to use the same part for both LHD and RHD. Good advice from all in this thread, thank you. Doesn't seem to be anywhere to buy one...... I'll keep looking, thanks again everyone :3

Thank you very much, Nigel. That's all good advice :) I was going to buy a jack and stands, but then someone stole both my numberplates before I could go on a trip so that's where that money has gone lmao. GT85 is a good shout, and preparing for the extra hardware wasn't something I had considered even though I know damn well that they are thin metal crap.

Ha ha that's gold with the clutch :3 I deliberately bought an older car so I could work on it, but the buy-in cost of tools is slightly too much for bigger jobs like this right now. I'm hoping to be changing the pads next week on my own, wish me luck ;)

Wow thank you for the detailed response. I am now 100% sure that I have the right part, and 100% sure I'm not going back to that mechanic ;) I'll try and find some time to get it up on blocks and switched, thank you for the resources linked as well, they've already been very helpful

First time poster, let me know if I'm out of order in any way. I am the most recent owner for an abused 2001 1.6 (MPI, AEE) Skoda Felicia Fun, and he is desperately wanting his clutch cable changed. I bought one (Maxgear 32-0206), and handed it to a local mechanic to fit for me while he was having some more work done. Apparently it has the wrong attachments, and isn't compatable with my Fun, and the mechanic isn't able to buy the genuine article as it is out of production everywhere. Any help would be appreciated, be that reassurance that I have the right part and my mechanic is wrong, or a link to the correct part. Thank you all in advance :)
