Default Speedo Cable Routing '71 4sp Coupe

I can't make heads nor tails of the AIM regarding the speedo cable routing. If someone could show me where it enters the cabin I might be able to figure the rest out.

Hi P,
The speedometer cable comes out of the firewall pointed directly at the right side of the car, passes over the rear of the engine at the firewall and then turns to go down along the right side of the transmission.
There are small clips to guide and secure it.
Regards,
Alan

Just as it exits the firewall:


Passing to the rear of the distributor... note clips to keep it snug agains the firewall.

I still can't figure out what hole it goes in through the firewall. Anyone have a pic of that?

Hi P,
I marked-up Crossed Up's photo that illustrated the size of the holes.
