Re: vss hook up painless harness

calmhotrod, you 89 bird has an electric speedo. Find the dash side C207, pin K BRN. Splice the painless speedo wire here. Find the buffer box right above it and unplug it. Jump pins C&F. Done

marcia, your 86 camaro will have a mechanical speedo, so there is an extra part needed to convert the electric signal into mechanical motion. I recommend the cable-X box, simple three wire hookup. Power, ground signal
