Anyone have any pointers for installing a new speedo cable on my TR8?  Do
I have to drop the trans to do it properly?  I tried doing it this weekend
and still have to use my tach to judge my speed.

Procedure I used: Remove old cable from back of speedo.  Remove clip
holding half of old cable to trans.  Remove cable from trans.  Put new
cable on trans & clip in place.  Attach new cable to back of speedo.

I noticed the wire in it seems a little short for the external cable...is
there something internal to the trans that holds the wire tight at that
end that I should be looking for?  Help!  I have til the end of the month
to pass inspections :)
