The 8' overdrive speedometer cable on my TR3B broke at the drive end a few m=
onths ago and I'm looking at replacement/repair options.

The silver-sheathed cables (the most authentic to the Smiths originals) form=
erly sold by TRF are out of stock and Albert reports his UK supplier went ou=
t of business unexpectedly, so with no alternative supplier they're not like=
ly to come back anytime soon.
Moss sell a 96" cable, but the housing is black. Certainly an option.
Napa sell speedometer cable repair kits, with various length universal-fit i=
nner cables and a simple sort of staking tool to attach a fitting to one end=
. The end fitting and staking tool are sold without the drive cable, as wel=
l.

Has anyone used one of these? How to they work? It sorta looks like one cu=
ts the cable to the right length and attaches the fitting, I'm guessing to t=
he instrument end on our cars. Is that right? Are these a realistic repair=
option?
