More than likely electrical for most commonly replaced ones.  I  believe the speedometer is cable driven on all of them.

as vile said Dakota digital Chris sells them  has everything moves the fuel gauge over to the open gauge on the side the lil 2", and adds a tach were the fuel goes. granted you gotta put some money into it like over 500 but it a easy swap you can do it in about an hour or two with no problem. the online catalog seams not to be up right now
