Does anyone have an exact formula to calibrate the speedo on a 1993 Audi 100?

Mine is apart, just got the itty bitty odo gears at 5 PM.  Reassembly takes place tomorrow.

Yes, I have the +12V bench supplies, audio generator and so on.  

Huw's page says 120 MPH=240 Hz while Palo Alto Speedo says 60 MPH=130 Hz...and I thought the cal would be in a metric range (ie 100 HZ for 100 kM/h) <grin>...

Please advise-there is a little more urgency than expected-I was in a little accident this morning.  A truck driver missed his turn off a local road and didn't see the red Jetta.  He decides to back up/roll back instead and takes out the grill and both head lights.

Funny part is that both 9004 bulbs still work, the A/C still has plenty of R-134A and there was no leaks from the radiator as the car was sitting for an hour waiting for John Law to come and write the accident report...

You can see the carnage at home.earthlink.net/~wmagliocco

Would this be a good opportunity to get a set of E Codes and a matching grille?
