Default Need help Please

First, Happy New-Year to all. Second, I need some help locating the "Speed Detection Circit Lead" on my C5. I'am in the process of installing a navigation in-dash system and it requires this unit to be connected to detect the distance the vehicle travels. Any leads to find this wire would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

At the moment I do not have access to my C5 manual. The speed sensor is located on the top of the differential towards the passenger side.

Maybe someone will chime in with access to a wiring diagram and the location where the wires terminate up front.

Seems unusual to me that a GPS would need a speed sensor input. My portable GPS unit uses the GPS satellites to determine speed, direction and distance traveled.

However, I am unfamiliar with the workings of various GPS systems.
