Not sure on the wide-body cars. On early Panteras, removing the thumbscrews 
that hold the speedo in place sometimes allows the instrument to pull out 
the front enough to get pliers on the nut. This situation sometimes comes 
from owners who over-oiled the internal cable, then tried to prevent leakage by 
over-tightening the nut. Or from simple corrosion. Maybe a skinny, flexible 
neighborhood kid with small hands could reach under the dash with waterpump 
pliers? Good luck- J Deryke
