e-brake cable snapped.

So, my wife comes homeand tells me that the e-brake is not working. this is what I find:





How in the holy hell can I fix this? I'm low on cash, (still no job...) so "just take it to the dealership" won't work. I need to fix this problem for $5 or less. is there some kind of clamp that will hold tightly enough to the cable and not slip off? like something with screws that dig in or something? (imagine a christmas tree stand) I'm sure if there were something like that, it'd work fine...

Also, my headlight is out, my cruise control has magically stopped working, and two lights on my steering wheel have gone out.

but otherwise the car is great. it's still fast...

I recently got my oil changed that counts for something, right?

Cruise not working is probably your third brake light out.
