A ‘cable system’ which as vehicles have evolved over the years, is the normal system fitted and gives a similar brake/ clutch feel as the driver. However, this system does not mimic the driver’s actions on the pedals on the instructor’s side. Whereas the rod system will operate on the instructor’s side when operated by the driver, allowing the instructor to perhaps view the clutch travel etc but very often gives a heavier feeling in the instructor’s pedal.

A ‘rod system’ which requires more room to fit and was used predominately in older vehicles.
