Default 82 Speedo Cable

So I decided to do a little cleaning in the engine bay of my 82 last night and I guess I knocked the speedo cable out somehow. Driving today, I've got no speedo and the odometer and tripmeter don't move. I'm assuming this is the lower cable, but no idea how or where I knocked it. Anyone have a decent pic of what I'm looking for specifically?

Easy fix or pita?

Thanks!

Not sure if the 82 is the same as a 81 but on mine there is a transducer on the inside of the driver side fender with a upper cable to the speedo and a lower to the transmission. If you follow the vac lines over by the brake booster you should find it. Look by the washer fluid jug
