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 <b>same
length speedo cable</b> 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

<p class="MsoNormal">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.</p>

<p class="MsoNormal">It would make sense for the cable to pass
through the central hole in a LHD car.</p>
