Default It never stops!

So after what has so far been a very expensive month, currently up to around £1100 on the car at the moment, and not even gone in for the mot yet!

However after getting the car back from the garage that did the clutch, he advised that the gear linkage cables need changing very soon, and he thought they were around £75.

I've had a look on Rimmers, and they list them at over £100 each! DMGRS show a pair at £95 + P&P - https://www.dmgrs.co.uk/products/rov...0021-uls000031
or there are some pairs on eBay for £65 incl P&P - https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Rover75-M...IAAOSwuRtdjSzO

Has anyone any experience of any of these, are any of them ones to especially avoid or are the cheap ones ok?

Sounds like an awkward job, but not sure I can afford to send it to a garage again, its wiped me out the last few months. In fact I wish I hadn't totted it up in my head while making this post, this years total stands at over £1500...
