Can anyone please tell me or show me (with pics) Where the trip odometer reset was originally installed? It eems that the previous owner thought this might be a bright idea to have it come out of the dash. By doing this, he left a metal prong protruding out of the dash. When you pull the prong cable comes snaking out of the dash. I have searched high and low to find a knob that will work. No luck. If anyone could please help me, I would greatly appreciate it.
Where was it originally? What should I do now?

How easily should the knob turn? Mine is seized...any ideas about lubricating the cable??

Not sure how far you want to dive into this, but there's a good article on the PP site that describes a speedo rebuild with lots of pics.

Hijack over:

Sorry Danna, can't help you with the knob. Maybe you could check at an electronic supply house for a knob that fits the shaft.
