Does anyone have a brake cable housing retainer (hold down clamp)? Maybe someone has an unusable fuselage that still has one and could cut it off at the weld. It is the one that is forward of the aft brake pedal that is welded on the fuselage and uses a nut and bolt to tighten and hold the brake cable housing. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Would it be easier to just make one?

It's been several years but if I remember correctly one of the ears snapped off on my Champ when I tried to tighten it down and rather than weld one in (and chance burning holes in my new fabric) I fabricated a clamp that went around the tubing and another clamp to hold the brake cable.
