[Mk2] [Turbo] Throttle cable extension

Post by Ryan S »

Looking for a neat way to extend my throttle cable. I could make up a custom one but I'm trying to save the hassle of taking the whole thing out as I only need an extra few inches. Anyone seen anything "off the shelf" that would do the trick?

Use a bike brake nipple that screws in with an allen key, take a bit of cable with the end on it to the throttle body and adjust to the right length and clamp.

Hope that makes sense, it does in my head.

This is similar to what I had in mind. Aesthetically it won't matter as the cable will be completely out of sight anyway. Cheers dude :thumleft:
