 2wd Vanagon speedos need 805 or 820 cable revs per mile. Speedos from
 Jettas and such are in the 1540-1575 cable revs per mile range. No
 workie. In some cases they can be adapted for use in Syncros as these
 use 1600 cable revs per mile. Makes the speedo more accurate by the way. >>

Mark,

I believe Cary only needed the speedo face anyway. So as long as the face can
be overlayed onto the original and the markings are of the same increments,
the mechanicals would not make any difference.
