For the record, the end in the picture isn't where the cable naturally ends, it is where the cable either burned in half or was pinched off. I had another wire (one that somebody added for the stereo) that was pinched behind the bezel as well.
Since I have an auto trans and no other fiberoptic wires coming off the gauges I'm guessing that's what it is.
