I did a search and didn't see anything. Probably too simple, but I can find a way to screw up the easiest task. I am looking at the factory manual. Replacing the speedo cable sounds easy but the pictures are not too good. Can someone describe the process? My gauges are out. Disconnect from transmission and pull it out? Fish the new one from rear to front?
