Simply go to a speedometer shop and have them make you a custom speedometer cable --SAE on one end and Toyota on the other end. If memory serves the speedometer end uses a 23 mmm connector and the NP will use a 5/8 x18 thread. Just "let your fingers do the walking", locate a reputable speedo shop and they will know what to do. I had one made this past summer and it cost about $25.

Jack- what speedo shop do you use? it seems that in the Midwest there are no speedometer shops anymore. Apparently when we stopped doing state vehicle inspections, headlight alignment, speedometer calibration, etc is now a lost art.
Thanks, Luke

There are 3 or 4 speedometer shops in Portland, OR. I use the following:

(503) 227-5567
They are outstanding folks and I bet they will ship. Give them a call
