Non A/C vent cable question.
I'm in the process of setting up some vent cables. The car didn't have vents when stock, so I've never seen just how they're secured. The installation point for the inner cable is obvious.
But now I'm wondering just where/what the outer cable screws down/or secures to?
Anyone with a non A/C car ever change or replace your cables? If you could tell me where the outer spiral cable screwed down I'd sure appreciate it.
Thanks!
John

The cable had a bracket on it. This bracket screwed to the retainer on the bottom of the console and held the cable. The eyelet of the cable went over the stud and was held in place with a swedge type washer.
I'll see if I can dig you a picture out.
Here see if this helps.

I just had to run back out to the garage and check this out.
I could see from the diagram the fixed ends were too far forward to be on the shifter plate.
So that's what those two shiney brackets are for on the underside of the console!
Wow, and I thought things were getting tight before.
Thanks for the info and diagram! I'd never of thought to turn the console over and scope out the bottom side.
Thanks again!
