Wanted handbrake cable end nipples

Yes I think this has been covered before but I can't find the answer for looking, so here is the question. I'm sure that someone out here has the answer.

Ok so apart from the usual of a freindly RAC / AA van where else could I obtain spare clamp on nipples for hand brake cables.

I've moved my hand brake lever and fitted a re-inforcing triangulation support on the rear mounting so now the Ford quadrant fouls the braket so I will have to come up with another longer /different attachment to the handbrake lever and I was thinking Peugeot rod and screw on / adjustable pick up attachment bar but that would need a nipple for each cable end IF available. Clamp on nipples in this case would be an ideal solution.

bin the car cables and use universal clutch cables from Hein Gerick the bike shop!(£2.99 each) they are the same size steel cable in a thinner sleeve. they also come with screew on nipples. Ill put photos of mine onto here in the next few day's
