I've just got back to the project and have removed the old cable. Needless to say, the 'specialist' who replaced them last time omitted the plastic retaining bracket for the e-brake cable that mounts to the rear jacking points. I plan to replace the one on the cable as I happened to have both the plastic retainer and the rivet from a past project that didn't need it.
What I am curious about is there are 2 green pieces of tape circling the outer cable in the area where this cable tie goes. Are these there to show where the cable tie is to be positioned?
I am using OE cables so perhaps the aftermarket ones don't have this? Before I tie everything back up, if anyone knows the answer it would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
Neil.

I did not zip tie in my e brake cable replacement. I paid very close attention to the positioning and did 1 side at a time to use the other side as a template.
The new cables should come with the clips on the sheath at the wheel end...??
