To effect a shorter cable, you can build up some length on the outer cable with JB Weld.

Nice job on the paired screws

Andrew I'm not sure what you mean, do you have any pictures of how to shorten the cable?

My passenger front door won't open from the outside handle.

I tried 2 different spare carriers I had to no avail. Maybe they were meant for a different door? I understand none of the 4 carriers are interchangeable.

I took it apart and I tested outside of the car. I can see that when the door carrier is moved as far as possible, it doesn't move the mechanism on the latch far enough to disengage the lock.

If only I could make this cable a bit shorter
