HI. We have done one of these - twice! First time was about 18 months ago - dealer parts were used as we couldn't match the connections with the two outer cables from the factors. 1 month ago it failed again - we still couldn't just replace one outer cable, even from the dealers, because the cable connections (weak point) have been modified! We had to fit a full set - again! You do have to drop the tank down to access the floor where the cable passes through. We had loads of fun getting the rubber grommet back in - 2 man (or 1 man and 1 boy) job Not a job for the faint of heart! The fitting of the two outer cables to the shoes is a simple job compared to that! Good luck!
