I imagine at '92 it's the 2 cables from the hand brake lever? If so - I couldn't find a nearside cable either, so I bought x2 offside cables and took the clips off one and reversed them to make it work on the nearside

Just my local motorfactor - they're called bullseye, I can't remember what brand the cable was it was a few years ago, I can remember there were 3 types available, one sort for t-box brake, one sort for the single cable to the back axel, and one cable for the x2 cable type, as I said I just bought x2 of the same and changed the x2 p clips on the cable so they sat right for the other side, other than that the cable is identical!

I think you can also use Jimny hand brake cables for a samurai sport but dont quote me on that!
The ones I got had way too many P-clips on them and in the wrong places

I rang a motor factor today and they told me that the cable is discontinued. Any ideas where to look for one?

Try Pebley Beach Suzuki, failing that maybe Suzuki UK?
