I had for a while this little Gadget.

It helps to turn the nut at the end of the clutch cable.
Much more easy than to reach it with a wrench when adjusting the clutch.

I thought it was an useful little helper.
But today I got this one.

It is even better! As it turns the usual nut as well as a wing nut.

They are now also for sale: https://airheadparts.com/vw-part/clutch-cable-nut-adjusting-tool. Unfortunately, I cannot find them in the EU. I struggled for 15 minutes under the car last week, when I needed to adjust it at the side of the road...
