Greetings,

I have purchased a lovely Phase 2 GTi6.

I was talking to scott about having my throttle cable re-located as mine is quite long. As illustrated by the picture below.



(I have since cleaned the inlet and engine cover better with a wire brush but not taken a recent pic)

Scotts is a lot shorter and goes via the top of the engine.

Can anyone suggest someone local to give me a hand to do this (and order the right bit, from whoever)

I am seriously a mechanical fail.

As long as it's running freely, no snags or frays and the clips to the rad aren't pinching it or rusted through, then I'd leave it as god intended! Yes

It's true later on they snaked it over the top of the engine, shorter route = less cable = cheaper to produce, like most things about the ph3 cars Whistle
