    Hi All,
    Trying to find the correct replacement speedo cable for my 68 Wildcat 2 Dr. On the rock auto site, there are two different lengths for my car. I want to do away with the cruise control and replace the 2 piece cable with a single cable, so I can't really remove it and measure it easily. The non cruise options are 63" and 83". Here's a link to the Rock auto page.

    I need to be sure as I have a box of rubber seals that are incorrect for my car from their ambiguous website and I have to eat the $40,00. return shipping as I'm outside the U.S.

    Thanks, Gary

    Jim, Thanks ever so much! I guess the 63" is the way to go. I'm guessing you have a Buick part number book.

    Try a Buick dealership with that part number. There could be a correct one out there.

    Oops, I ordered it already from RA. I'm hoping the 5" difference won't matter too much.
