Default Speed sensor wire needed for Navi install

Ok, So I just bought a 98 Civic LX, Im loving it so much I decided to upgrade the audio system to a simple navigation system (blaupunkt). Now Im installing the thing no problem, done tons of recievers over the years and the directions are looking for the speed sensor wire... and the reverse +12 wire (now i know that shouldnt be that hard to fine, but the speed one has got me wondering.

Anyone have any experience with installing navigation systems like this?
From what Im reading, it compares how fast you are going with what the gps is recieving and corrects any mistakes.


Thought I would throw that out.

Thanks

- Cal

How about Reverse +12v?
I picked up a Haynes Book, and the wiring diagram doesnt help much.

Thanks

Thats Exactly what I was going to do. Was just curious if anyone else did it and could let me know for some time savings.

Thanks again
