Default WTB Fuel Gauge, Parking Break Lever, Hood Latch Cable

This is going on a 1997 Honda Civic Ex.

Need the fuel gauge in the cluster. After doing some test I found out it was the gauge that is broken not the sending unit. Looking for just gauge not the whole cluster.

Need the parking break lever, my release button broke.

Need the hood latch cable. Goes from the interior of car to the front latch to open the hood. Plastic piece that opens it broke off and cannot repair it.

Thanks,

Andrew

Same happened to my '02 Civic. I fixed it by removing the plastic cover around the release handle bracket.
1. Carefully cut away the remaining molded plastic from the cable end.
2. That revealed the tip of the cable = metal 'slug/solid round piece about 1+ inches long.
3. Managed to thread that piece with a die.
4. Bought a solid aluminum rectangular drawer pull at hardware store.
5. Drilled out drawer pull for tight fit over threaded cable end.
6. Screwed drawer pull onto cable end.
7. Looks better than factory and won't break!
