Grant,
The speedometer drive gear, in the gearbox, is matched to the rear differential, but usefully is colour-coded.
The part is #52 in the drawing but you need the correct colour since the speedometer will read incorrectly otherwise.

Use the Buyers Guide in the menu to the left, to ascertain if the part is still available from VW.
