Hi there,

VW changed the connection for the speedo in 82 to a stick on; means 80 and
81 are screw on. I know because I've an 80 and am still looking for a
speedo.

Both my current '84 and my '85 have clip on speedometer cables.  However, I
used to have an '84 that had a screw on cable.  I don't know if my current
'84 was "Updated" by a previous owner or not.
