I didn't know any better, so I just stuck min under the cover and it worked
fine. 75 TR6.

Subject: [TR] TR4A overdrive column switch wire routing?<br>
<br>
I am looking for advice, even photos, of how to route the wires from an ove=
rdrive switch (mounts to the left hand escutcheon) on my left hand drive TR=
4A<br>
<br>
I am going to be adding an overdrive to my transmission this fall, and I am=
trying to get the =E2=80=9Ceasy stuff=E2=80=9D done ahead of time.=C2=A0 <=
br>
<br>
As I look at the column with the original escutcheon halves removed, I do n=
ot see a good way to get the wires into the column =E2=80=9Chead=E2=80=9D t=
o join the other switch wires.=C2=A0 =C2=A0There does not seem to be much r=
oom to feed them in without pinching against the metal of the column, but i=
f it goes forward of the turn signal switch.=C2=A0 =C2=A0And if the wires p=
ass rearward of that switch then they could interfere with the self-cancell=
ing mechanism.<br>
<br>
And then once the wires are in there, how do they get fed down and out the =
column to go into that long narrow cover on the bottom of the column along =
with the other wires<br>
<br>
And those wires already there seem to completely FILL the available space i=
nside that cover!<br>
<br>
How do I free up that cover to get<br>
It loose enough to pass the OD wires?<br>
<br>
So many questions!!!=C2=A0 Sorry!!<br>
