handbrake spring

can someone check a part number for me. its kind of hard to explain the part but ill give it a try. handbrake spring. it clips the end of the handbrake cable to the heatshield on the rear on the rear brake assembly. (its not the springs that hold the handbrake shoes in) the one i have is a chunky spring bout an inch long but loads of spring in it. the only one the guys in opel can come up with is almost the exact same as the ones for the handbrake shoes. very thin and bout 3 inches long with very little spring in it. (basically making it impossible to stretch back into position)

I've done mine before and they are a pain in the butt. The spring isn't very springy.
