David,

Correct, the speedo drive is after all the internals of the trnasmission and OD, and is the same as the prop shaft.

I am not positive about all the earlier TRs, but the TR4 line has 2 receptacles for lightbulbs.  One is the Highbeam indicator and goes to a little colored plastic rhinestone on the dial face.  The other receptacle is for the illumination.  I had thought that the earlier cars had at least ONE receptacle (for the illumination).  As far as I know, the all the gauges have a bulb for illumination.

Tony,
I understand that the OD has no bearing on this as the prop shaft maintains constant rotation, it is the motor that changes.  After I looked more closely at the speedo (and others) I realized that my back case has two holes for lights to fit into the speedo (not the high beam).  Other 3 speedos I have seen do not have lights, rather they rely on central dash lighting (?) and the light comes through openings in the case.  I am not sure what I have here.  The other numbers on the speedo are SN 6319/06 and then 1216 just under the odometer where the 11XX usually is.
