i made my own but you should be able to get some made for £15 ,i attached them to the pedals by using a 6mm bolt with a top hat spacer so that it was able to spin in the pedal then driled a hole in the bolt behind the spacer just bigger anough for the cable to go through and then clamped it using a washer and nylock nut,i know that maybe clamping the cable isnt the best way to do it but it works fine

Used a blade bike clutch cable and inner/outer cable from a push bike for the accelerator......about £5 for the lot.

well it does on mine!! you have to cut the nipple off right at the end, I turned up a cable stop to fit in the tube on the chassis and then clamp the cable to the pedal with a drilled bolot and spacer...........my chassis is about 2 years old so the design for the clutch cable routing may have changed now??

The no hassle route when I did mine was the Westfield Megablade items, cost about £25 for both IIRC, although this was about 2 years ago too, so prices might have changed and others might supply similar now.
