Default throttle cable broke... help

Driving down the street and lost throttle. Turns out the throttle cable broke about 6 inches from the accelerator pedal. I looked on roverparts.com and the only throttle cable listed for the disco II is the other cable that runs toward the passenger side. I need the cable that runs to the pedal under the drivers side. Any help with this issue, and where I could find the part would be great.

Thanks!

Can't say for sure could the same throttle cable be used in both applications?

Not sure if this is useful. There is a NHTSA Recall History on the 1999-02 Landrover Discvery II. Chaffing of the accelerator cable could lead to breakage of the interior cable strands, making the throttle stick in the open position.

See attachment.

They can not be interchanged.
Check with Will or Paul from my signature section, one of them should have one or call the dealer.
