91 Formula broken parking brake cable

I apparently pulled too hard on my 91 Formula's parking brake and the cable snapped on the front side of the yoke where the 2 cables go to the factory rear disk brakes.

I've done the search for this, and Autozone, O'Reilly's, Pep Boys, the GM dealer, and napaonline.com don't show the front cable for this car.

Anyone know where I can get a new parking brake cable for this car?

Sure hope someone can help me find this cable......

I assume you have PBR's. If so, check this link about halfway down or so for e-brake parking cables:

How do I find out/know if I have the PBR's or not on a 91 Formula?

Does a 91 need first or second design cables?

The PBR's (finned alum) are pictured in the above link. Also listed is info about the correct cables.
