So the recessed (counterbored) area on the end of the sensor is where the screw goes and attaches it to the speedo head? It seems too small to accept the screw that I have.

Also, my VSS yellow box is zip tied to the frame above the steering column - should it be attached somehow to the back of the instrument panel as shown in your pic? I don't think it has the same hole in it as the green one you show. I am thinking that I need a green box, but the few NOS ones I see are ~ $100 and I don't think I want CC that much for the less than 1000 miles of city driving a do each year. Also, my experience with old electronic circuit parts is that they usually don't work.
