I don't have it, it's Modifry's. If he doesn't post in a reasonable amount of time, I will take a new picture showing mine. PM Modifry first.

Here you go. The Blue/White wire that comes out of connector C101 is the speed sensor wire. The photo shows it cut and spliced back together using mating crimp connectors. That's where you should cut it, connecting the end going toward C101 to the YB input wire, and the end going towards the trunk release to the YB output wire.

The note in this photo shows a T-tap to the yellow wire. It's actually a yellow/blue wire, which is 5v sensor power. I think the YB is supposed to connect to the 5volt sensor power, and if so, you should T-tap into the yel/blu wire for that.

BTW - In 2 weeks I'll be releasing my own "Yellow Module" specifically designed for the S2000. It will cost about half of the other yellow product, will be much smaller (smaller than the DCI), will have built-in diagnostics, and will come with all the wiring and connectors needed and clear step-by-step instructions. And it will cost about half of the other product (am I repeating myself?)

I've had it in my car for about 1000 miles and it works great. It's a little different than the other yellow product in that it only adjusts the speedo downward, (can't make it read higher). But then I don't think anybody has a problem with the speedo reading too low, so that shouldn't be an issue. It will allow you to adjust your speedo/odo to within .25% accuracy, which is close enough when you consider tire wear can affect the speedo by as much as 2%.

It also allows you to adjust the settings 'on the fly' and immediately see the results, whereas the competition requires a power cycle to read the new switch settings. So for those of you tweaking your speedo with a GPS, this is a great feature. And unlike the competition's product that doesn't work below 5mph, mine will. If the car's moving, it's working.
