Corsa Handbrake Cable

[Spleurker]

Hello,
I have a 1995 Corsa, 1.2 ltr Arizona.
It's a "B" type Corsa.
The handbrake cable has snapped and I've just bought a new one (both
pieces).
Has anybody got any tips or advice for me before I attempt to fit it.
Any help will be appreciated.
Cheers

I did one of these on my 1998 Corsa, from what I remember it was a straight
forward, all I can suggest is grease the part where the cable bends just in
front of the Drum, so it doesn't snap again

Adjust up the handbrake shoes first before adjusting the cable itself.

Cheers for the tips.
Not too bad a job really.

Oil it and grease it

You can never have too much lubrication....

(I'll immediately contradict myself and say Of course done get any oil on
the friction equipment)
