So the left and right handbrake wires/cables came and I replaced the left one.
The right one has so many bolts to be removed and each bolt would take me 24 hours without bombing or cutting the whole car... Also it was in good shape so I didn't replace the right cable.

Handbrake works good now and sorry didn't take any picture, forgot.
But if anyone needs help, let me know!
