    Default speedo

    hey guys im wonting some help

    as some people my know im puttin a vn interior in my car which means the speedo will now be electronic not cable.

    so i was wondering if there is any easy way to connect the speedo

    as i looked at the vn vss (vehicle speed sensor) and its different to the cable which goes into the gear box



    would there be any plugs which go into the vl box that are for electronic speedos and if so where would i find one



    any help will be great

    thanks



    (oh and also i have a non turbo 5spd)

    Yes there are. It's an electric switch that is driven off the original speedo drive in the gearbox. Not cheap though. Check performance autoparts stores. Or Castle Auto Electric & Exhaust Service Main Road Chewton 3450 Phone: 03 54721442

    Curious, does the VN interior switch straight into a VL?

    What modifications need to be made for that?
    What parts of the VN interior are you putting in your car?
