Very simple because it does not have one!!! It has a VSS that controls the speedo. NO CABLE!!

All fox bodies have a speedometer cable
Remove cluster, disconnect cable on transmission side, feed cable through firewall.
Pretty simple and straight forward

Ok i forgot that car has the VSS in the dash and a cable I stand corrected!!! I totally apologize for that incorrect information. I have a 1988 drop top and should have known better. Getting old!! Thank you for correcting me totally embarrassed.
