Carrow,
If you can pull down a MB manual transmission, I'm pretty sure you can figure out how to take the speedo out of the cluster; it's apparent how it comes apart once you get the cluster out on the workbench and can see the back of it.

you need to know the size and shape of the cable end and replicate that with a drill to power it....
I think I used a 10p nail with flats filed onto the pointy end so that it would fit into the speedo. I nipped off the nail head and chucked the rig into the drill, poked it into the speedo and Zoom, Zoom, Zoom!

My Makita cordless drill goes about 28mph.
