    its unfortunately a torx later one.... Is it the Speedo itself that is the difficulty as I assume the pin outs are the same?

      No, completely different unfortunately. You need to find a later torx type Speedo to swap. But don't worry, lots about on later v6 80 Cabbies. The difficult bit comes when you try and remove the needle in the new Speedo. It will need to be held firmly using very thin pliers from under the pin. Otherwise, you will destroy the internal spring. BTDT

        That's what got me in this situation, twisting the needle when I needed to lever it up....will keep an eye for late cabby speedos....
