i'm looking at a A2 instrument cluster right now.  compared side by side
the speedo cable attachment seems to be the same as the 85 vanagon cluster
i compared it to, push on style.  true the electronics are a bit different
but from my primary inspection it seems just a matter of adapting the van
plug to the back of the instrument cluster.  the electrical portion of the
cluster hook up really doesn't bother me as i built alot of industrial
control panels.
