Good day all.
Does anyone know where I could get a speedo cable in the Cape Town area for a 1964 Karmann Ghia - and would it be the same as the one for a Beetle I wonder.
Also - long shot - anyone got a spare passenger side rear view mirror?

You could try Flat Four Racing in Killarney Gardens.

Doubt they will be the same the lengths might differ.
If they dont have try Berg motors or Grandslam.
