hey ppl. 
 
quick question really, when fitting a c20xe into a corsa, which speedo cable to you use? mine is a two-piece cable but im not sure what its off and its stretched as the needle is wobbling all over the place and isnt displaying the correct speed anymore. 
 
can any one help please? ideally i want to use another 2 piece cable as my dials are a bastard to fit with a single piece cable. 
 
cheers 
 
james

a regular replacement one from motorfactors is the same length and a lot cheaper just a one piece 
 
are you sure its the cable and not the cable drive unit that has decided to die? ive broke 4 cables and 2 speedo drives
