Hi all anyone got one? What are the like? Anyone in Australia sell them? Only asking as I'm having issues with my cable one at the moment. Looking at upgrading to an electric one

I made my own, but used the original odometer tumbler - I don't like the digital display

I'm making one too. Mine will use stepper motors to drive the needle and to turn the odometer. I haven't decided what to do with the fuel gauge yet.

They are a nice thing. I try to keep the price similar to uk outlets. I'm interested if one of you guys can make one with a mechanical odometer. You definitely have more time on your hands than me :D

You could fit a separate Fuel Gauge...after all, you can never have too many instruments :D

Could use a 1:1 90deg speedo drive box and a longer cable? How Lillee here did it.
