VW emergency brake cable. The emergency brake cable runs from the handbrake lever to each of the rear brake calipers. And is an essential part of the cable operated system that secures your VW while parking, or in case your hydraulic system fails. It's best to replace them both at the same time as they deteriorate with use. Order two of these per vehicle to complete the job. 2 required per vehicle.
