Yes, that would be great, but like I think we?ve talked about before, I don?t want to drive around without a speedometer. I guess I could park the car for a few days, but public transportation extends my commute from 35 mins to 1 hr and 20 mins. Maybe I could next day it to you and have you next day it back? Or I could buy one of yours? Here?s what mine looks like. I know it?s not generally advisable to take pics while driving, but I thought 90k miles was an occasion of sorts :) Anyway, just a small rust spot between 40 and 45 and a tiny one below and left of the VDO. If you have a rebuilt one comparable to mine, I might as well go that route.

William?.I feel like we?ve tried enough cables that we can probably safely eliminate it from consideration. Plus, the little bit of cable I have left from a busted one isn?t really fit for purpose.
