Does any one know of a supply of original style outer speedo cable ?

Or a good second hand cable

Thanks for the thoughts.

The problem with my speedo cable was that the outer had been rubbing on the bell housing and had worn through to the inner cable. As I attempted to pull it through the firewall the outer broke in half.

Fortunately I have found a firm in Sydney who will repair the outer by making up a sleeve, joining the broken pieces together and refitting the inner at the right length. I will lodge a photo on the forum when I can.
