Hi, does anyone have the engine ground cable that goes from the passenger side strut tower and splits to the cam cover and power steering bracket?

i made my own as the old one on the 5g (before i sold it) was wasting away, just need some thick ish cable and crimp some appropriate ends on

Halford sell varying sizes of earth straps - these are flexible braids so shouldn't work harden or crack with age. Wont look OE though.

If you want the OE look, time to buy some cable and terminals and a decent matching crimper/die, but that would rapidly exceed the cost of OE replacement.

hard to tell if this is the same part? part #12 - either way cheap enough and its light so shipping won't be horrendous to find out one way or another...

Thanks for the input guys.

Scott, I'm fairly certain that part 12 is the one and I did look at that page but completely missed the one for the F22B so thanks for pointing that out! I am after an OEM cable so I think I'll take a punt on that as I'm fairly certain it will work, even the connection point on the cam cover is the same

Strange that there is a different part number for AT and MT but the MT part number is very close to the one for the BB6/BB8, I need to order a couple of other small bits so will put an order in.
