Karmann ghia speedo cable
As the title states need some guidance on my speedo cable.
Car didn't have one in it so no idea where to route it.
Does it go to the drivers side or passengers side wheel
Any tips on how to do it?
Thanks

The cable is longer than the beetle unit and I believe the type 3 unit will fit,it goes in the L/H hub and locates the inner in the grease cap. The
cable is fitted from the top and runs across the top of the fuel tank down the inner guard to the l/H stub axle. I am assuming it is an early sixties
unit,if you need some help let me know and I will help.

Ah ok. Will have another crack at it.
It's a 1960 model.
I was looking on the drivers side but couldn't see where it feeds through the back of the drum.

There is also a seal with a steel ring in the back of the stub axle,this has been superseded by the top hat shaped seal to go into the back of the
stub axle to prevent gunk getting in to the bearings.
