genuine if you can still get them.. remember seeing a post where genuine ones were discontinued.. but worth an ask nonetheless!
as far as I know they are discontinued now. which bit on yours is broken?

Yes discontinued now, well according to my local RD. Northy I'm not sure tbh, I had a call from mot man saying mine had seized and is held on behind pedal with a cable tie, so it needs replacing. I thought it was a one piece thing? Take it I'm wrong?
You can buy the clip part for the pedal on ebay - which comes in a aftermarket kit.

if the cable has seized it is normally due to the heat from the exhaust manifold
I've got the kit above off eBay which means I now have the clip, but what are my options for the cable itself? Discontinued at reno now so it's a pattern part only. Has anyone bought a replacement from a parts outlet that has been a good fit? I read alot on the forum, but never recall a post regarding the throttle cable and what the deal is with them.

I had an aftermarket one fitted and it just about fitted. Their isn't a proper clip to hold it to the throttle (in the engine) so it threads though and is bolted to stop it coming back through.

although I think sits left hand drive hence the length..
Yeah spotted that mate, the left hand drive issue ended all interest though tbh
