Subject:Speedometer Cable

As I reassemble the dash after my wrestle with the fresh air fan, master
cylinder...  I'm thinking about the speedometer cable.  The speedometer
bounces around quite a bit at low speeds, which clears up at higher
speeds... My recollection is I should not lubricate it up behind the
instrument cluster.  Am I correct on this or is my memory marred by too many
VW fixes (71 Bug, 79 Rabbit, 87 Cabriolet, 90 Fox, 91 Vanagon and 99
Passat)?? Anybody out there have a thought?
