I bought new ebrake cables but am having a difficult time understanding how the main cable attaches to the 2 caliper cables. Here is a pic of what I have...

Just looked at my other Sunfire, I am missing a big metal clip... should it have came with the cable, do I get it seperate? Sucks, no brake mock-up tonight lol.

$90...

but as I have just found out and should have realized, they don't work. I am using the Baer setup but I am using Corvette calipers instead of Camaro's, the big difference being the ebrake setup, and ofcourse the big @!#$ up I made was the fact they are too long, I knew this but still forgot and went ahead and purchased them. I have Neon cables I am going to use, I just have to crimp on different ends (opened end like stock, not the factory Neon ball type end) and it should fit wonderful!

Equalizer, that's what I need to make the stock cables to work... and of course custom brackets to hold onto the ebrake cables apposed to the factory locations. I have the custom brackets that I am going to bolt onto the trailing arm but where in the hell do I find this equalizer? I will hit up the wreckers in the morning but I may hit up GM... sucks.
