This is gonna sound realy ghetto, but does this sound like it can work. I cannot get to the stock speedo wire. The nav recomends a tapping into a speedo wire(pulse based). Bike speedos are the same general concept of a magnet that creates a pulse when it passes by a sensor. If i was to tap into this type of setup (i would install on driveshaft) could this in theory work. I have used this on 4x4s and RC cars, but i just wanted to throw it out there for you guys too.

I would love to just tap into it at the ECU. HOWEVER, i have yet to see a wiring plan for the ECU for me to do this. If you have any links or diagrams for me to do this, i would greatly appreciate it.

thanks for the PM. I saw this before but without more info i was lost, ive only had the car 3 weeks and it looks like it got chop shooped. Anyway, after reading your pm and the half reading you were getting i have decided to run it without the speed sensor and see if its fine then work from there. thanks for everyones help.
