Speedometer Cable - Grommet?

I need some help in locating a speedometer cable grommet for the firewall side of my 72. Should I use the universal and drill it out or is there a special grommet for this? My just disappeared during the re-wiring and I can't find it.

Any 67-72 vendor should have the special one in stock.

Re: Speedometer Cable - Grommet?

Here's a question for you: How the heck do you get the dang thing to go around the factory cable sheath ends? I wanted to swap mine over, but since I won't be using a cable system on my new setup, guess it ain't gonna be necessary. I'm just curious how to do it for future reference.

I can't check the forum daily. If I don't reply to you within 24 hours, drop me a PM! I'm (hopefully) still alive and will reply faster to a PM.
