Hi everyone!

I'm replacing the old OM617 to a newer OM606. All has gone well, but I'm sort of stuck when it comes to finding a smart and reliable way to convert the throttle rod linkage from the OM617, to the wire on the OM606. The pivoting pedal from the OM606 won't fit inside the footwell.

Has anyone else conducted a similar project? If so, how and what did you do?

Thanks in advance!
