Sorry Bart, can't help with the dash :oops: but the speed sensor - the existing stereo already get's a feed from this - see if it says anything on the back of the stereo as to which wire it is.

Surely the navi system will have its gps sensor and will get speed from that? It does with my pocket pc with tomtom antway.

AFAIK, the Nav system needs the Gala signal, the GPS signal and the reverse driving signal to function optimally. I guess two out of three ain't bad, but I'd get all three.
