Had to change the rear calipers yesterday so I bought new handbrake cables as I knew mine wouldn't come out but now I'm having some problems.
The passenger side one is tight and holds but seems longer than the old one because the there seems to be some excess under the car.
Drivers side one isn't holding properly but when you look under the car the cable is tight to the body.
The block they go into at the handbrake is being pulled by the passenger side cable too so isn't straight how it should be.
Looking on ECP there seems to be some slight variation between the lengths, but I'm not sure what I should do tbh. I think I got them right as I did them one at a time and double checked part numbers to make sure I had the correct side in my hand.
