1969-1972 SPEEDOMETER CABLE RETAINER CLIP(ea)
The 1969-1972 Speedometer Cable Retainer Clip (Each) is a factory-correct reproduction spring steel fastener designed to lock the in-dash speedometer cable securely onto the rear housing of the instrument cluster unit. [1, 2]
This small but vital component provides the crucial tension required to keep the speedometer cable’s push-on head perfectly seated against the gauge mechanism, preventing an erratic needle or total cable separation. [1, 2]
