Liquid plastic (interested that's all)

Cheaper option would be a specialist breakers yard.

tried a few, but there's not many c-max Fords with power tailgates in scrapyards.

Sorry buddy, out of ideas then.

Any customers who are metal workers? Maybe see if you could a new piece turned out of steel to replace the broken plastic moulding? If you could get the profile right, cut a slot down it to insert the cable.

whilst we're on the subject of getting hold of the unusual, anyone know where i can get a bowden cable repaired or replaced? pic shows where the plastic retaining collar has snapped on the groove. ( should be enlargeable).

What part do you require, is it printable?

We get something called copper reducing links which are basically a reducing ferrule and would work to replace that broken plastic part. I can't find a UK supplier though. You'd need to heat up the nipple and pull it off first then refit it using a solder pot afterwards. It's a lot of messing around to save a few quid though Tel.

**edit** Here's something similar Copper Round Pin Terminals - Cablecraft - http://www.cablecraft.co.uk/copper-pin-terminals.html
You could maybe try slotting one with a dremmel tool rather than removing the nipple.
