Default 20v 1.8t mk2 swap speedo/tach question

im in the process of doing a 1.8t 20 valve swap into a mk2 gti. im going to use mega squirt. i plan on using the mk2 tranny (for now). i want to retain the mk2 cluster so i was curious whaat way to go about adapting the speedo/tach from the mk2 with the 1.8t motor.
i havent started the actual swap yet as im waiting for my buddy to pull what all he wants off the loaner car. Just doing all my research and gathering parts as im not really familier with 1.8t.

Fourtitude.com - mk2 cluster with 1.8t swap questions

looks like a corrado g60 one may work.

might be easier to swap in a 1.8t drive by cable found in an earlier 97-99 passat/a4 instead of the later drive by wire ones

if your keeping the tranny from your car and cluster from you car then your speedo will work just fine as its mechanical
. then just need to find a signal from megasquirt to send to your tach.
