Where to Find Supplier for this helical (flocked) Sunroof Cable ?

[pilenda]

I need to buy this type of cable (about 300 feet of it)- its used in sunroofs and power windows in cars. It uses a worm gear to push and pull the cable, I know its found in numerous Jeep power window assy's as well as VW sunroofs. The pic below is from a VW sunroof assy (that Im trying to redesign so it doesnt keep breaking).

Here is a pic - the cable has the felt/lubricant imbedded in it. Much thanks!

Try Hilex or Denso in Michigan.

I have used flocked flexible drive cables from both companies.
