Abstract

The bowden cable drivingly connecting a crank on a motorcar door to a carrier for the window in the door has a plastic compression member whose ends abuttingly engage retaining members near the crank and the window carrier. The ends are of noncircular cross section, and their angular movement about the longitudinal axis of the cable is prevented by conforming engagement with respective retaining members.
