34 ashtray Philco Radio

[jimTN]

Just installed the radio in my original 34. Hanger bolts are thru the firewall dimples where they should be. Question now is what to do about the speedometer cable. Had to take it loose to get the radio in and now it seems anyway you rout it, it will be to short and also come into the speedometer at a sharp angle. How is this fixed, longer speedometer cable and housing, cable routed above the radio and radio tightened against it or something I was to dumb to notice?
