Handbrake Lever / Cables
I was just about to connect my handbrake to the cables, I have the MNR supplied cables / quadrant etc but am I missing a part of the kit or am
'I' missing something
I have the lever / switch / quadrant but can't see how they connect together, I think I am missing a connector bar but am not sure
Any ideas

Have you got the manual (we tried doing this last night but don't have the quadrant!)
It says to cut the cable, and you should have some rope clamps as well - put the cable through the quadrant, then turn it back on itself, and tighten
them together with the clamps....

Thanks, I have the manual and understand how it goes together but what do you connect the quadrant to, as in the manual it is in an horizontal plane
which it wouldn't be if connected to the handbrake itself

ahhhh, sorry, mis-read the question....
on the back of our handbrake lever, there's a joiner bar with a pivot into the lever, and another pivot onto the quadrant....
Give me 2 minutes and I'll upload some photos

There should be a connecting bar between the handbrake lever and the quadrant.

I havent got a sping what does it do?
I havent worried about the connector you dont need a handbrake light for sva just low fluid light. I ended up using two sierra cables and using the
sides with adjusters - lots of faffing about not a great design as i couldnt see how its all held in place through those holes in the chassis so im
using the adjusters on the cable.

The spring is just to pull the switch to turn the handbrake light on
That's a good thing that I don't need the handbrake light, I may just leave that bit off until after SVA
