    working speedos w/new gears and set mileage

    *EDIT*

    Because of the lack of interest (probably due to shipping both ways) I've decided to put together speedos and sell them as units. They will have fresh gears and be set to desired mileage. They are interchangeable and will work in either VDO or Motometer clusters. Will be making a yard run this weekend to pick some up, so these should be available starting sometime mid-March. The price will be $55 shipped and/or an additional $10 core.

    Please post in this thread or PM me if you have any interest.

    -Mike

    p.s. if you request to have a certain mileage set, I strongly advise you to be honest to its accuracy. This is not an invitation or opportunity to wipe off a bunch of miles from your high-mileage car for resale. That is not ethical and I will not take any responsibility in anyone trying to take advantage of this service.

    no interest? i have logged 600 miles so far on my set with no problems.

    also, a VDO speedo unit will operate in a motometer cluster. just food for thought.

      hey guys,

      I have some replacement gears for the VDO clusters - the three main drive gears. I can swap the small drive gear that most commonly breaks on the motometers as well, as they are the same gear. I've swapped a couple different sets out, and my personal cluster has been ticking for several hundred miles with no problems on the swap. These are made out of Acetal polymers. This being said, these are not the ultra-high quality gears from odometergears.com, and I'm in no way trying to detract from what he's done - just making a viable cheaper option for those of us who are budget-challenged/minded like me.

      Gear swap (bring me odo removed) $30
      Cluster uninstall/install +$10

      I can set the mileage on these things too, but it's kind of a PITA and I want to avoid any complications.

      LMK if this is something anyone would be interested in.

      Mike

                            Im actually surprised there isnt more interest in this!! Had this happened before my 325s took a dump (and befre it got totalled) I would have jumped on it!! My ///M3's is still good though.

                              I'm interested. Getting married in 16 days so Bridezilla has me flat friggin broke, but i'll definitely do it. It's the 10 year anniversary of when mine started to break, so I think i'm approaching the time to do it.

                              Can you roll the odometer forward 60k+ miles? I've kept a running ballpark in my noggin of how far i've driven...
