	The only thing keeping my 1986 Audi 100 avant off the road is a lack of a throttle cable! Ive tried everywhere but nobody has a cable for a 4 cylinder carb model. The closest I can get is from the Audi main dealer who can supply a LHD cable from Germany, they don't even list the correct RHD item anymore. In theory the LHD cable should be slightly longer than the RHD version and so would be usable but can anybody tell me for sure? I don't want to order it, wait a few weeks then find it cant be used. I know this is a pretty obscure question but its worth asking, just in case.

	Going off past experience Tim, it wouldn´t surprise me if they´re both the same mate. If it was my money i´d risk it! ;D

	hmmm, i might be able to source a secondhand one for you; let's see, what i can do.... if the Passat one is the same, it might be a lot easier....

	RHD and LHD ones have different part numbers, so I guess they have to be different? I know Audi 80 cables are completely different, good chance a passat one will be too!
