1962 firewall grommet positions

[Kenneth F.]

I am installing hoses and cables through the firewall on a 1962. According to the drawings in the Assembly Manual, it appears that the wiper motor cable goes through a 4 hole grommet in the 9 o'clock position in the top hole of the firewall to the driver's side of the wiper motor. The oil line goes through the same grommet at the 6 o'clock position.

The speedometer cable appears to go through the hole in the firewall, below the oil line grommet.

Below the speedometer cable hole, 2 windshield washer hoses go through a grommet that appears to have 2 holes.

I am using Section B, Sheet 11, in the AIM

Comments or corrections would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Ken

Could I have a photo of the grommet below the speedometer cable that probably contains windshield washer hoses?
The photo of the oil line and speedometer cable is great. The loop in the oil line is something I would have not known about.

Speedometer cable. Disregard the manual choke cable added.
