Emergency brake cable grommet

I looked on the board and only found one old thread on installing these grommets.

Still not clear, How do you stretch it to go around the cable fittings?

Lube and stretch it.

Replacing the Parking Brake Cable Grommet

One of the tabs on the original is broke. I've got a new part but how do you get that cable loose so the part can go over it? I pried the end piece out of its bracket, but this fastener that holds the cable to the parking brake assembly doesn't want to budge. How does this thing come loose?

I wrote up part of what’s in that link. If you need more details, let me know

Electricians have these black grommets that come apart. I got one from an electrician friend years ago. Worked very well. Might be able to reconstruct what I did.
