Thanks for taking the time to make and share your video. It took about 20 minutes. I used one zip tie initially... which worked briefly... ended up adding a 2nd before putting panels back on.... works perfect... thank you... thank you... thank you

There’s a $11 metal holders for the cable you can also buy at Advanced or AutoZone that is a more permanent fix than the plastic holders for the cable going to the latch takes about 15 minutes to do cause you gotta pull the actual latches out but definitely worth it I just put the metal clips on my 01 Lariat

An essential detail is to put the zip tie behind the cable and the clip piece of metal that it had previously been snapped off now broken if you set the top part of the cable on the metal squeeze clip then easily put a zip tie around it and the side control latch bar it will not slide off. Reaction to opening and closing as the original component works to align the cable... to maintain a balanced tension on the cable. I put two zip ties creating an x shape. Two zip ties and sprayed it with silicon lubricant. It should last 20 plus years. A F150 2002 I could not figure out how to install a new metal sleeve after mkt part. I used the existing top part of the broken cable sitting on top of the metal clip and snug/attach tightly with the zip tie. I used two ties.

They sell a ' cable fix kit' on amazon for this very issue, its like 12Usd, and its aluminum collar/caps for both ends of all the cables in the rear half doors, just installed mine today, quality wise i'd say about 7-10, i had to take a hack saw and file the grove for the cables a bit to allow it to pass smoothly when the cables were fully seated, but thats a tool i'm sure anyone has access to if you're ambitious enough to open your car door. only complication i can for see is if you need to install the collar caps on the latch ends of the cables you will need access to the appropriate sized Star socket and 3/8ths ratchet. but its a long term permanent fix for this issue
