 This is stock, untouched BJ8 LHD routing for the cable, from the mid
point of the tunnel cover up to the gauges. It is possible that the
hole to the right is for use on RHD cars, so that the SAME LENGTH
SPEEDO CABLE could used for either configuration. Note the various
lengths available from AH Spares, but the BJ8 cable is one length for
either RHD or LHD cars, regardless of OD or not. I guess if you can
fit the cable to the RHD gauge using the center hole fine, if not use
the right side hole. Hank

	I have just taken a photo of my restored RHD BJ7 with speedo cable
but not gearbox tunnel installed. The speedo cable falls naturally in
a position to pass through the right hand hole in the gearbox tunnel.
My cable did when I bought the (1963) car in 1977, so this was
probably the original fitment for this car. 

	It would make sense for the cable to pass through the central hole in
a LHD car.
