Do I need a new throttle cable or can I 'ghetto-rig' it?

Do I need a new throttle cable or can I 'ghetto-rig' it?

Finished my 355 swap and the plastic clips that hold the throttle cable to the firewall broke off. Is there any way to fix this, or will I have to spend the cash to order a new cable and have my ride be down for another week? Anyone know the P/N? Oh, yeah. I didn't find any in the bone yard, but I DID find something else. See my other post on this page.

Actually those clips dont do a whole lot. You could try using some silicone to temporarily glue it to the firewall.
