I just connected a VDO GPS Sensor to my VDO guage. After sever attempts I found that best connection for the 12 V wire (red)was to the green wire (12 V) coming out of the back of the speedo. he black wire to ground the white wire to ground and the green wire to the # 8 connector on the speedo. Remember to disconnect the sensor coming from the rear end (on my BDR) or the trans. Mine is connected so that the power to the sensor is live when the ign is turned on. Takes a few seconds to power up and acquire signals. My sensor is mounted on the console just forward of the gear shift. You can mount it anywhere you please but remember it is a LOS (line of Sight) antenna . I hope this helps.
