ABS cable and sensor on Sport Tourer - same as hatchback

Hi everyone

Quick question - is the ABS cable and sensor on the front of the Sport Tourer (the estate) the same as on the hatchback? I'm assuming they will be. But perhaps someone knows for certain.

Background: My ABS light is on, and a local renault specialist has some used ABS cables off of hatchbacks, but not from an estate. They only cost £10, and as my usual local garage couldn't spot anything obvious on the ABS on the annual service I might take a punt on trying a new cable on both front wheels, rather than going for a diagnostic test first. I may live to regret that decision of course! But a friend's laguna had the ABS light on and his had a problem with the cable wearing where it joins to the sensor

Cheers for any help

They might be the same. Only 1.4 hatch has slightly different brakes.
