Abstract
The invention concerns a remote control device for a motor vehicle comprising a cable (22) whereof the ends (26, 28) are each provided with a connecting piece (34, 36), a sleeve (24) wherein the cable can slide such that the cable ends (26, 28) exceed the sleeve ends (30, 32), and clips (42, 44) for interlocking the sleeve ends on parts of the vehicle. The connecting pieces (34, 36) and the clips (42, 44) are overmoulded on the cable and on the sleeve respectively from a common plastic material, thereby enabling to control accurately the distance (A or B) between the connecting piece and the clip.
