Most newer transmissions work with these electrical speedometers with the help of a computer, when you have a add on a Power Programer 
you can enter the tire size rear, end ratio, to bring the unit to the correct speed, But they must have some kit with a magnetic inductive pick ups at the output/drive shaft end, so for our cars it would be a simular set up with a magnet and a pick up coil mounted the the end of the tranny tail housing to pick up the rotation of the shaft, and send the signal to the speedometer.
