Hi guys
I have drift iridium speedometer and Im curious as to how I wire the speedo cable in. Does anyone have any pictures or info it would be most appreciated.
Cheers

From what I understand, the Drift Iridium is a digital speedometer so it will not/cannot use the existing Mini speedometer cable.

 

Contact the folks at Digital Speedos and ask about the adapter they are supposed to have for the Mini gearbox.  Their sender will replace the cable and send electrical pulses to your new speedometer.

EDIT:  And a link to the sender itself

Hi thanks for the reply.
I know about having the adapter for the cable drive as I have one. I was wondering if anyone had wired it in.
Thanks again

I would not refer to the pulse generator as an adapter for the cable.  The pulse generator completely replaces the cable and is a sending unit.

 

The unit available from Digital Speedos appears to be a three-wire device.  That means it requires an earth connection, a switched 12V power connection, and the third wire will go to your speedometer's pulse input.  Since I have not worked directly with either the sender or the gauge I can only offer general advice.
