from the end of the downpipe to the back, take your exhaust off, remove heat shields.
there will be 2 bolt type adjusters on the cables, loosen them off until you can take the cables out, then remove the cables from the rear . job done
when putting new cables in, start from rear and work your way up to the middle,

tis an easy diy job,,worst bit is if cables are seized in caliper be care full taking out or you will end up buying calipers to as alloy will break away around cable
