So, I purchased a 70 Rallye gauges and bezel off of e-bay.  I am going to put it together, it needs work.  I started purchase pieces to restore it.  I needed the clock cable, it also state I should also order the nut.  So I did.  I looked at the parts and service manual and I don't see which end and how its threaded onto the gauge cluster or the clock.  Can someone explain this to me or better yet a picture as well.
Thanks, Jeff

Hi 
The round nut attaches the adjusting pin end to the dash frame (first image).  It's easier if you do that first.  Since I'm a cheap b*astard, I used a pair of long nosed pliers instead of the installation tool (third image).  The end with the captured thumb nut screws onto the clock (second image).
Hope this helps
