Where to buy a speedo cable?

Where is a safe/good place to buy a speedo cable that will be a proper/accurate fit.  I have heard there are some bad repro's out there both in quality and incorrect length (too long).  I found one on eBay, anyone care to comment on this one?

It's for my 70 Charger, 440-Auto with headers.

terrible one

The one you linked to on EBay and the one from Mancini are the 62" cables, which work fine. I think stock length was a little shorter like 58" but I'm not sure. The one to avoid is the 80" one, which is just far too long and a mess to route without kinking it up.

charge-it

I have them in stock and ready to ship. I used one on my 68 and it fit and works perfectly.

Do you have to grease the center cable on these new pieces, or do they come lubed and ready to rock?

I didn't grease mine. It has been in the car for exactly 1,894 miles. Do you have a Chrysler dealer nearby?

Thanks everyone, I ended up going with Mancini.  My dealer quoted me $72 + tax, Mancini had the same part for $55.
