The alternative may be what I did when repairing a Lotus Europa clutch cable ( try finding one of those at a parts store!!!!!) I used some stainless braided wire from a marine store, and machined the pedal end and the lever end pieces myself, and then silver soldered them on. That was in 1984, and AFAIK they are still working fine. The owner went to England on a holiday in 1988 and bought a factory cable. It's still a spare....
God I'm old...
