Hey guys, I had to re-register since I originally registered between October 18 and the time of the datacenter episode. Anyway, I have a question regarding the speedometer cable routing, particularly around the brake booster and firewall entry point.
In the attached pic, this is how the cable was routed when I purchased the car. It runs through the retaining tab that holds the cruise control cable and windshield washer hoses and then into the firewall. The cable has been replaced at some point because the one that was in it when I purchased the car is a one-piece unit.
My concern is that this much bending of the cable in this route may cause issues. I don't know if this matches the factory routing or not. Any advice or info will be much appreciated.
