Hello Luc,
The speedo and speedo cable are the same, but the hand brake cable is a little longer then the one used on the jeep.

Hello Luc,
For you and your family a happy new year as well (and off course also for all Forum members).
I will be in my shed next Saturday so I will give you then the difference in length, I'm working on both cables for my GPA and GPW now, they are next to eachother on the table.
I will get back to you soon.

Re: speedo and handbrake cable
Hapy new year to everybody!
Thanks Leo!!
Am currently installing the wiring on the bulkhead.
Does anybody has a picture how it is routed?
I went to Jaap to see his beautifull GPA, but it is a very early one, which is different from the very late ones (11747)

Luc

Re: speedo and handbrake cable
Luc,
My GPA handbrake cable is overall around 4" longer then the GPW version, the outer cable is 1-1.5" inch longer.
I hope this helps.

Re: speedo and handbrake cable
Thanks Leo,
I have put in the cable that came out when I bought it.
Hope it works, it is F marked which is a good sign already.
It is taking shape now, am picturing as I go for future restorations.
Best Regards,
Luc
