Title: Vent Control Cable Routing
Post by: dwhite on December 17, 2024, 04:45:02 PM

I'm working on a M3A1 which originally did not have control cables for the floor vents.  Since I'm in the restoration process I though I would include them in the rebuild.  Fortunately the brackets which hold the end of cables are still there.  My question is how are the cables routed from the dash through the firewall to the vents?  Anyone have a photo?  Thanks, DW

Here's how the cables are run on mine. Let me know if you need any more pictures or measurements.
