Kinda looks legit if you search the part number in the description itself M-7553-B302.
Though if you look at the pics the adjustable end of the cable looks different on different sites.

Made in China, but M-7553-C302 is the cable itself from performanceparts.ford.com

No idea about this was just Googling and came across it.

I am pretty sure that all of the new stuff from Ford is made in China or elsewhere. What you are wanting is new old stock or NOS which is what rednotch has his alert set for on eBay.

I know NOS would be ideal but they are hard to come by. I was just curious what the next best thing would be. My cable seems fine so i'm not in the market at the moment.
