Don't remember... but its easy to get it right.

If you have them upside down, the long end will hit the subframe (which prevents the handbrake being fully deployed). I know this because for many years I had issues with the handbrake on one side. Yep, one quadrant correct and the other upside down :(

Do a trial fit. It will be obvious which is correct.

Cheers, Ian

Put them in with long pointy end towards the drum
Had to buy another set of handbrake cables as the first set are total BS
Waste of $80
springs to long to even fit between the lever and the bracket , hole to small for the clevis pin
locating block to quadrant 1inch different in length between the two cables from clevis pin
This is the crap available to us today
Rang the supplier and they said they would contact their supplier , YER RIGHT
