Quick and dirty fix for hood release cable guide sleeves

I discovered something that you guys need to know about. The other day I 
noticed on a early 90's VW Corrado that not only is the passenger side guide 
sleeve metal, but the little cable clamp is integrated into the guide 
sleeve! Thats a super nifty upgrade that I intend to use on all of my Audi's 
with plastic guides. The drivers guide on the VW was (*sigh*) still plastic 
like the old Audi ones. Oh well, I'll buy one new metal guide and one new 
Corrado guide w/ clamp and be done with it.

I don't have the FA installed here at home, but if anybody wants to look up 
the above doo-dad it was on a '93 Corrado I think. I'd love to have the part
