working speedos w/new gears and set mileage

[Cha Ching]

Props to Mikey for being a stand up guy and doing a service here. Otherwise, you can do like I did and buy the gearset for about $85 and then install it yourself. This is a steal gents! If your odo's been busted it's really cool to watch the miles roll by (literally).

OKAY, update time. a return to school and bad odo luck has slowed me down, but i have managed to get a couple more ready. i have created a rough list of who is lined up to get one. i know you guys are waiting on me and i'm sorry but it's been a little slower process than i had hoped after salvaging, swapping, setting, testing, and shipping each...plus the disappointing unforseen fried gauges i sometimes run into during the testing process.

PLEASE let me know if you have PM'd me and do not see yourself on this list, or think that you are misplaced in line.

Bump for an awesome service.

[mkcman17]

The part that takes the most time (besides the yard hunting) is setting the mileage because it's hard to get the keepers right. No matter how many times I do it, it's still a trial and error process. I'm asking $65 shipped, and $10 back to you for the core.

Yeah if you're local that's awesome! I'll discount you shipping and core costs.

can i bring you a cluster to fix? thanks! - james

I need to send mine in if all you want is $55. I've done a few of these myself but I spend $25 per gearset and a couple hours in the shop.. $30 for this service is a nice offering to the community!

Andrew, glad yours is working out too! I'll consider moving it once I catch up, but at the moment I'm about six orders behind. Unfortunately I'm just one person and I can only get a few out at a time, especially since I hit a bad batch of three bum gauges.

I'd suggest moving this thread from "random crap" to "parts for sale" to get more traffic.

May be interested in this, posting to find thread in future.

Another satisfied customer!! I've had my car nearly 5 years and this is the first time I've had a working odometer. Its very cool! Thanks!

Thanks jason! Glad everything is working out.

Sorry for not getting back to those of you who have pm'd me and are waiting for testing. I moved back to school this weekend and just got settled in. I will be sending out pms the next two days in the order reserved.

[Lof8]

I received mine today. Will post results soon.

+1 Rep for Mike. I just bought an odometer from him. It arrived today as promised and works great! Mike was super easy to deal with and delivered on what was promised.

Thanks, Mike!!!

First speedo tested today and being shipped tomorrow. My driveshaft isn't aligned properly, so I'm hoping to test/send one per day for the rest of the week.
