While on the VSS topic, anyone have any wisdom on mounting the VSS unit under the dash, at the speedometer, instead of at the ZF angle adaptor?
With correct adapter fittings, seems it could be completely hidden under the dash and thus not require running wires from engine bay.
Thoughts? Ideas?

Larry there is not enough space behind the speedo to fit the speed sensor there. It really is not a big job to pull the wire thru and strapped to the speedo cable. It is for sure faster than fumbling around behind the speedo and in worst case removing the dash. If you insist to fit it behind the speedo there is however an option using a 90° adapter and the benefit is that they come with various ratios so that you can get your speedo to show accurate speed. I fitted my speed sensor at the ZF together with a 13% ratio decrease adapter (180°) so that my speedo is now accurate. It looks like a christmas tree coming out of the ZF but that didn't bother me so far.
