Reply to "Vendor “reproduction” parts"

Wow. I feel bad being a paying Vendor after these comments...I've heard more than a few comments on this sight over the years...people in general, not here of course...just don't like Dealers & Lawyers. Anyway, my contribution:

We're in the DeTomaso business here, and a handful of others are also 'cross America. That being said,  why not call around. Had someone called us about needing a throttle cable, I would say why, I'd say build it yourself. 30 minute job. Cost? 15 bucks.  Why would you need the whole thing anyway. The whole thing don't go bad.

Proceed:

Don't take anything apart & don't take it out of the car. Simply remove both ends  pedal & carburetor. Grab the cable with vice grips in the engine bay. Pull it out. Go to Lokar Direct or ebay, buy three things: Cable,  kit, ends. We just did another one this week in a 5S. Smoooooth as glass now. No need to remove console, seats, back panel, or any interior for that matter. Simply pull the old one out, grease the new cable, feed it in. Cut it, clamp new ends , adjust. DONE. Just another day at the office at Pantera Miami.
