Turns out the parking brake cables for the SVT Focus have been discontinued. Thanks Obama Ford.
Fuck.

Are they really that different from the regular Focus parking brake cables? Of course, there's always the aftermarket, and possibly Ford Europe from the ST170.

The rear calipers on mine need an eyelet connection on the cable. The cables I just got from RockAuto, along with everything else I have looked at have a metal ball at the end instead.
I was under the impression the rear calipers on the SVT were identical to the rest of the 4-wheel-disc Focus models. Guess I was wrong.

They buy up old discontinued shit... Ford would be able to tell you if they had it.

I called a Ford parts dealer and all they said was it was discontinued. No mention of aftermarket solutions.
I just searched with the possible part numbers, no dice.
