Replacement Bonnet Release Cable

Hi, does anyone know where I can source a replacement bonnet release cable?

Original cable became seized, but was able to get bonnet open and lubricate cable.

Trouble is, in the process the outer sleeve became stretched ever so slightly resulting in no enough cable appearing at the catch end, preventing the bonnet latch from engaging without immediately releasing itself again.

Thanks to my trusty Dremel I've modified the cable end slightly so it now works, but would like to source a replacement cable just in case.

Can't see anything on the forum or anything for sale in the various outlets, is there one available, or is there one from another vehicle that does the job?

Thanks in advance!
