John,

The accelerator cable passes dowm the gearchange tunnel and then to the front of the engine. The front is used as the normal entry from the rear of the engine makes the cable pass within mm. of the exhausts and this has always caused problems. I thought that there were some photographs of this in the workshop manual, if not I will send some to you.

The speedo cable runs down the opposite side of the car, the outside of the passengers seat. The gearbox speedo drive is on that side and it is best that the cable is feed directly to it. Again I thought that the manual had photographs in it, I will check today at the Motor Show and will contact you Monday.

Best wishes and keep up the excellent work,

Robert Logan
