    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.

    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)
