Part arrived quickly. Had to order twice because we ordered the wrong cable the first time. Returned wrong cable and reordered correct one. We received it within a week. Great service.

Easy fix

Perfect fit, spent about 1 min to locate the correct part on the website, maybe 2 minutes to checkout. Receive the part in just a few days. At most, 10 minutes to install. Works perfectly!!

Great fit.

Fit my Honda lawnmower perfectly. Easy to install. The connector to the handle was a bit different but didn't make any difference in performance.
