got a thread in the geneal chat section about my breakdown which ended up being the clutch cable snapping

av been tryin to fix it myself and i'm having trouble getting the clutch cable to come through the bulk head av unhooked it from the pedal but it just wont pull through

here some pics of the only bit i can seem to get a hold of the cable does everything seem right?

but i cant see how i'll get the new one in myself lol its like flying blind i cant see anything past what u see in the pics lol
