Speedometer cable interchangeable? (BP and B6-ME)

I have a 91' Mercury Tracer LTS 5spd, 1.8 BP (donar car.)

my speedometer cable snapped in my 93' MX3 1.6 liter 5spd.
(both are using oem trannys)

does anyone know if these cables are interchangeable?

thanks!

well first off the speedo cable doesn't go into the motor it goes into your tranny..but as long as your tranny is still a cable driven then your fine...just get another cable

..so I guess that's a yes?
anybody else have more definitive answer?

Should interchange with very little hassle. Both are cable-driven and use the same connectors on the gauge cluster.
