Thanks CiderGuy, but we are discussing that little two-grommet cable holder that also attaches to the glove box. The levers are easy to find (repro at least)... and the cables and the cable sleeves. It's that cable holder thingy that we can't find (except in Turkey apparently!)


Thanks for clearing that up.

it looks like the goal is simply to keep the cable from moving. Should be any number of ways to fabricate a piece to do that especially if you have a more sturdy aftermarket plastic glove box. Take a look at the picture of the bottom side of this original box.

Yep that's it! But I already made one on a 3D printer LOL. Works great.
