Pre-facelift car ... are the cables different lengths, or the same as each other?
I ask because I ordered a pair and the supplier Redline seems to have sent me two the same (both have brackets with "L" marked on, pointing the same way). Brackets can be opened and repositioned, so no worries if they're otherwise the same (First Line seems to quote 2170mm for both sides - FKB1828 and 1829).
Further, why the price discrepancy between R and L cables? Nearside (L) is about £45, while offside (R) is about £80-100 if you can find one anywhere!

For future reference, both cables appear to be identical apart from the orientation of the mounting brackets. These can be removed and re-oriented to fit.
No idea why the RHS one costs twice as much, seeing as it's almost exactly the same thing as the LHS one.
