Speedometer, Electric or Cable???
I just purchased this cluster off of ebay. I re-read the listing and realized the cluster was from a 1991 Camaro. I need the cable-driven cluster as I have an 88. Can anyone tell me if this cluster pictured is Cable or Electronically driven?

That is a mechanical speedo, electronic speedos don't have that aluminum housing on the back for the cable to connect to. The little block next to it with the wires coming out is an optical sensor that GM used before the VSS on the trans.
