Looking for a speedometer cable

I am new, and rather lost here. I need a speedo cable for 84 rx7, and no one local to me seems to have it. Any ideas?

I have one... actually two... I never labeled them... One is from a 1st gen the other is from a 2nd gen. I have no idea which is which..??? I'll send you both for $20 plus shipping and you can figure out which is which by comparing it to the one you pulled out from your car... RSDEVIL@ALLROTOR.com

From what I understand the 2nd gen cable is about a foot longer than the first gen but they should both connect properly.

I had a transmission shop pull my cable through the firewall and disconnect it behind the dash (in my '79). The fix was just to reach up under the dash and reconnect it. No disassembly required.
