I did mine a few weeks ago on my 1990 Westy lhd for the first time.(1) remove the carol from the clocks my clocks were loose because I was fitting a new heater blower it might help just for screws and unclip speedo from the back of the clocks (2) remove front grill and drivers headlight you should be able to see the rubber grommets in the bulkhead. You could always remove the spare wheel I didn't but it might make it easier for routing The Speedo cable. (3) remove the e clip from the end of the speedo cable that comes through the wheel bearing cover I removed the cover because it had snapped inside. then pull the Speedo cable through the back and remove. Just take a mental note of how the Speedo cable was rooted from one end to the other. After I had rooted the Speedo cable through I connected to e clip end up first then just rolled the van forward slightly until the speedo cable was in position and then it just click into Back of the clocks.
Hope this helps a bit?
