Default Autometer Speedometer & Mopar Cable Question??

Apparently Autometer speedometers have a screw type of end on the back where the cable goes on, as ours are a plug on type - how can I get around this to be able to use their speedometers with our speedometer cables. Thanks.

I used a Lokar cable kit and it fit perfectly. Make sure you by the recommended line cutters and add a couple of inches to the length you want. Other than that, it fits my Autometer Speedo and 727 like stock!

Lightbulb Speedo Cable Problem

We had the same problem, I called their customer service and they knew all about it, they gave me a number to a company in milwaukee that makes the correct cable. I don't have the number handy but you can just call Autometer direct.

Early A's and B's screwed on too. Found out it was an older piece because none of the 30 Mopes in the yard had a screw on cable. Finally found one on a '66.
