Default SpeedSensor wire

Anyone know where I can tap this wire for my Navigation unit? It needs a speed pulse. Well it doesnt NEED it but it will help increase the speed of my navigation unit so it doesnt have to calculate it through GPS which is slower.

The front wheels have speed sensors inside the hubs. The wires are attached to a bracket right on the inside top of the hub. I don't know if that will help you or not.

I have been looking for one forever as well. I am currently running my navi without one and you can tell its not as accurate. In my Z28 I was able to tap the speed sensor going to the stock headunit for the speed controlled volume feature. I have had no such luck in the vette and I dont feel like routing the wire under the car. There has got to be a wire in the cabin for that. Any ideas?

I was able to figure this out since I got no help here. Its Pin 50 on the PCM, which is located behind the wheel well line on the passenger side front wheel.

Of the two PCM connected the the one closest to the fender. In there pin 50 is a Green/White wire. That is the speed sensor wire. I tapped my Eclipse AVN2454 to that.
