Hmmm weird. I just finished installing rear brakes E brake cable was up including all factory brackets. I also just finished brakes on Nick's MI16 and E brake cable is also up including all factory brackets. 

They are simular but not the same. Once you dissemble caliper E brake mechanism is different and piston is 36mm where on 405 is 38mm. However they do bolt up and work just fine on 405.

I replace brake master cylinder and brake booster today with 91ABS pars as master cylinder is little bigger. This master cylinder should be just enough for front GTI6 brakes.

I also replaced brake line plastic holding clips with NOS parts. Windshield cowel got a fresh coat of paint and windshield wiper arms were already powder coated.
