Parking brake cables

[PunkST]

I guess after 100k i need new parking brake cables. Or for them to be adjusted. My car decided on it own to roll out my my parking space at work. Lol. ( i usually dont park it in gear because im absent minded and dont want the car to lurch into something).

Anbody done it before??

Does our car start without pushing in the clutch? I'm just in the habit of holding it down when starting the car that I never thought about if you can start it in gear.

It needs the clutch. Im so used to having it in neutral that if i leave it in gear ive done the embarassing lurch, like every time. Lol

It's very easy to adjust the parking brake. Did it recently on mine as it was quite a bit too slack for my liking.

Ive tightened my hand brake cable over the years now its all the way tight but still useless. Is it possible to replace the hand brake cable? if so is there a part number?
