    Default part number question- clip for throttle cable

    I'm doing my intake gaskets and in the process of removing the cruise control thottle cable, the plastic clip was brittle and broke in two.

    looking at realoem, is #5 the part I want? I can't tell if the clip is different for the cruise throttle cable and the standard throttle cable.

    Shogun, I don't think that's the part I'm referring to. Those are metal clips. The thing I broke is plastic- I have to squeeze one side in order to get it out of the notch where the cables mount to the throttle assembly.

    Its hard to see in the realoem link I posted above, but #5 is the plastic piece with a circular cutout to hold a short metal pin that holds the throttle cable to the assembly.

    It comes on the bowden cable. These guys have the cable with the rubber piece for $24. Here is a picture of the one I just bought. h++p://www.trademotion.com/partlocator/index.cfm?siteid=26
