Red arrow shows the clip to the ball end, pop this off with a small flat end screw driver, same with the orange arrow. Make sure you cover them well, as they can ping off at 1,000,000 mph.

Then the ball end will wiggle off.....

Black plastic part, is for the cruise cable if you have it  :y

Ok, I've come back, done it and I'm almost ready to lift it off...

Tunnie/Rob... I've popped the throttle cable ot no probs as per pic (marked no. 1). However there is that second paralell cable and also in arrow no. 2, does this have to pop out? I've tried and is quite tough so I thought I'd ask before I exert too much pressure and break it!  :y
