Can’t remember if mg midget are longer choke cables(that’s if the landrover ones don’t fit)
Do you remember what the difference in length is?
If the length is wrong maybe pull the inner out of existing and put in new outer, or trim outer a bit if it’s only 1/2” .
Think OP just needs to get it all in front of him, I am sure it could be worked out
with a bit of Heath Robinson.J

I don't think it's a big difference - maybe a couple of inches, but enough that the outer cable doesn't reach the cable clamp on the Weber. I'm sure some Heath Robinson would get it working, but I'm using the Weber cable until I have time to sort it out.
I don't think you can remove the inner from the original cable as it has a section for the cold start warning light with (if I remember correctly) some kind of slot cut into it to turn the light on/off. But if you're not bothered about the warning light, a longer cable that fits the steering lock should work.

Military FFRs (petrol) had hand throttles fitted so they could maintain constant revs to charge the radio batteries

Hi, I recently had same issue when I fitted a Weber 34 ICH. I used a generic aftermarket choke cable, bought at an autojumble so have no specific details on it, removed the original from the steering column and fed new one through same path. The new cable is secured by clamping to the plastic steering column trim rather than the tiny grub screw the original used.
