I take it you mean the inner of the right-angle drive is stuck in the =
speedo?  No experience of those but where the cable goes direct into the =
speedo it's just a loose-fitting square drive.

You may already know this but the routing on LHD cars did change at =
various times from going across the car behind the dash and needing a =
right-angle drive, to going across in the engine compartment then =
straight through the bulkhead into the back of the speedo i.e. no =
right-angle drive.

  I've got the speedometer out of the dash and out of the car, but the =
"inner" of the speedo cable is still very securely attached to the =
speedometer, and tugging on it with pliers doesn't seem to budge it at =
all.
