Abstract: A clip and cable assembly are configured for attachment to a panel of a vehicle. The cable assembly includes an elongated member. The elongated member includes a radially extending locating feature having a width. The clip includes a housing and a fastener. The housing includes a first section and a second section spaced a distance from the first section and a pocket is defined between the first and second sections. The first and second sections each define a channel that is sized to slidably receive the elongated member of the cable assembly. The pocket receives the locating feature when the elongated member is received in the channel such that movement of clip relative to the elongated member and the locating feature is limited to a length of movement defined as a difference of the distance between the first and second sections and the width of the locating feature.

Abstract: This invention presents a device for connecting two or more actuating cables. The device includes a housing, within which a bullet mount of a core wire of a first cable receives an end bullet of a core wire of a second cable. The device also includes a biasing mechanism for biasing the core wire of the first cable and the core wire of the second cable away from each other so that the core wires can be kept tensioned so as to function as a single core wire.
