Hey All,

Apologies if this topic has already been covered elsewhere, but I couldn't quite find the answer I need in similar forum discussions.

I have frayed a trigger cable on my #3 C4 (not the ultralight) and while the cam is still functional in its current state I'd like to repair the issue before it gets worse.

My local gear store has some various trigger kits but not specifically for the #3 C4 so I'm trying to figure out if anything they have will be compatible with a minimum amount of hassle. Here's what they have available:

#1 C4 Trigger

#2 C4 Trigger

#4 C4 Trigger

#3 Double Stem Camalot Trigger Kit

I could of course just order the appropriate trigger kit online but would prefer to save the time and money of shipping.

Cheers,

Noah

If I had to choose from these, I would go with the #4. It'll be a bit longer than what you need, but it should be a simple matter to clip some length off the stiff wires.

For those wondering...I went in and convinced them to let me try a few of them. Turns out that the #2 Trigger Kit fits perfectly in the #3 C4. 

The #1 was too short and the #4 and Double Stem #3 were way too long.

I'd be interested to see how long the #3 trigger kit wires are in comparison but good to know that the #2 works!

Guideline #1: Don't be a jerk.
