You may want to try to grease the speedo cable first. Drop the gauges panel, unscrew the cable from the speedo.
The metallic cable can entirely removed from the plastic part of the cable.
lube it, insert it,
extract it, lube it, insert it
extract it, lube it, insert it
Mine was completely dry at 100K miles, and squeaky.
