It involves mounting a magnet on the rim of the wheel and a pickup sensor to a solid part of the cart. Also you need to find a good place to mount the actual head so that it can be easily read. Next you need to calibrate the unit using the circumference of the tire. And that is about it.

There is a guy that advertises in the Daily Sun to do the install for $75.00 and I think (not 100% sure) that includes the speedometer unit and labor.
