Ok, So I broke the cable to the right rear caliper. Now I have no hand brake. I Managed to get the new cable installed onto the caliper and routed through the subframe to the T-Bracket that connects the two rear cables with the front one. However, I cannot figure out how to connect the cable to the T-Bracket.

The bracket appears to be a single piece of stamped or pressed metal with no obvious method of removing the cable.

Ideas?

The T-bracket has two openings on the sides of it that allow you to take the e-brake cables off. You just grab one and turn it 45 degrees to where the opening is and use a screwdriver to pop it up out of the bracket by hitting the bottom of metal cylinder at the tip of the e-brake cable where it connects to the T-bracket.
