I'm replacing the handbrake cables very soon and I'm after a heads up before I start.

I have seen that the cables are held in above exhaust and behind the heatshield.

Will I have to remove the heatshield to fit he cables or is it done from inside the car i.e removing carpet etc.

Any help will be appreciated.

nopoe, all under neath, remove heatshield 4 nuts i believe then easy to get to
hardest part imo is banging them out of the caliper

3x11mm thingy nuts need to be removed to get the shield off.
