It's better to fabricate VSS sensor by gluing a magnet to the drive shaft than mess up with ABS. IMHO .
No vss sensor and cables exist on my car except abs sensors and speed information travels from abs computer through the multiplex network to the whole car , i don't think it is practical to intercept that although i've tried to. Yesterday i've used abs twice due to the heavy raining and it worked perfectly as always. Though my intention is to either put a speed sensor to the gearbox from and older clio2 version of fabricate a sensor as you said but that would be extremely difficult due to the fact that drive shafts are very small and totally exposed to the elements (a belly pan could help a lot)
