Just replaced mine tonight before I saw your posting. Thanks for the photo - I found that rubber boot floating around behind the speedo. Here's what happened to mine. The original VDO cable had a white nylon clip that had broken off. There was a lot of rust dust that had fallen below the speedo because the cable must have been chafing somewhere. And when I was under the car, I noticed that the cable had chafed on the belts. My guess is that someone doing something behind the instrument panel (like replacing bulbs) accidentally snapped off the nylon piece that is missing in your photo.
Anyway, if you buy the replacement, it will likely be a GEMO brand that has a metal head. I stuffed the head into the speedo and it works, but there is no clip involved. I hope that the replacement cable is not intended for an earlier model speedo. My car is a '90.
