    Can anyone tell me where the speedo cable passes thru the firewall at? The moron who had my car before me decided to remove the cable housing and all, so now I have the dash apart and trying to figure out where the new one feeds thru the firewall. Thanks in advance gang.

    Slightly to the right & below the steering column. Should have a grommet there too. This location is under the plastic carpet transition piece. I've not done this before but the Chassis Manual shows it clearly.

    Thanks for the quick response Steve. I got the dash apart doing gauge and clock changes and decided I would hook up the speedo while I had it apart. Geeze what a PIMA getting the dash apart. :Dou: Got the new TPP grille installed today too. Can't wait to get it buttoned back up and cruise a bit.

    Here's a quick shot of my 69. You can see it coming out under the column like Steve says. Hope that helps.

    Thanks James, I got the speedo cable in, but still have to figure the best way to route it past the headers. Got the rallye gauge installed, still have the 24 hr. clock to put in and replace the Heat and Air control since mine has issues on the fan settings. Looks like at least one more day of hand cramps and backaches :Dou:
