Heating Swanny (up the) ?
I have a snapped heater control cable (dash end) which controls the cool/warm flaps from the heat exchangers. Any where I can get a new one and any advice on fitting?

Can't advise on the cables but as a temporary measure you can use cable ties or a bit of wire to hold the heat exchanger flaps open. You can access them from under the rear arches. Can be a bit fiddly but better than freezing.

Re: Heating Swanny (up the) ?
new cables are available from JK - they can be a bit of a pig to fit if your not dropping the petrol tank but as already said cable tie the heater flaps open
nearly all others with any kind of heater issue use this method of 'permanent heat' with cable ties 
It is by will alone that I set my 'van' in motion!
