I have a set of clocks with single plug. It shows 91,000 on the clock and is fully working.

It took me about 2 months to find one and now I have a spare!

Only asking ?50 + delivery which is what I paid for it.

If your lucky enough to have a Golf 8V with under 91,000 then I don't know!

Otherwise you can place a drill in the end of the speedo cable and wrap a elastic band around the handle and wait!

Simple to change though, all you need is a phillips screwdriver!

I have to change mine, can you give me a few instructions please.

Don't I have to take the steering wheel off?

It  would make it easier but you don't have to.  
1 - U need to remove the radio.
2 - pull knobs off of the heater/air unit. pull it out, remove connections
3 - Now you need to find the screws holding the facia on
   - there should be some where the radio and heater bits were
     one behind the light switch
     and maybe a couple at either end of the facia
     (tip - it will just fall off when you've found all the retaining screws ,     i.e dont YANK IT!

   now two screws at the top of the clocks need removing
   then tilt clocks forward, reach behind to disconnect the speedo cable
(this can be tricky, it has got a plastic bit you have to press while you are pulling at it)
  thats it, apart from the wireing plug, pull it out.  and you may have a vacume pipe, pull it off

all that with a phillips and a lot of swearing!!!!!!!!!!
