MG TD TF 1500 - tacho cable routing

We are currently re-assembling an early TD. I have worked out that the speedometer cable runs through the bottom rear of the battery box, where does the tacho cable come through? We also need the correct place for the choke cable. Any photos would help.

Hi Shawn,

Looked at from the front of the car the tacho cable comes through the bottom right corner of the battery box, with the oil gauge line immediately above. The speedo cable comes through with the wiring loom! on the left hand side of the bulkhead near the upper of the two horn bracket holes.

The bulkhead holes are shown on page 135 0f the Malcolm Green 'T series Restoration Guide' book and I think in the Archives.

Hope this helps,

Cheers, John
