      Well, the first speedo I received was functioning perfectly until I went to reset the trip odometer. After hitting the reset button, it sat at 0000 and wouldn't move :( Mike sent me a new speedo without hesitation, and this one is working perfectly, trip odometer and all. I'm not sure what happened with the first one, but Mike treated me well. Excellent service and support. Thanks Mike!

        Sure thing andrew, I just never expected there to be problems with the trip reset. Glad things are working out now and I'm sorry for the extra swap you had to do. I made sure I tested yours VERY thoroughly haha.

            Just out of curiosity, do these include a coding plug?

              I purchased the new gears, test it so that the gears spun correctly, but when I installed it back in the car, it would not work. Is there a price we can work out so you can check it for me?

                I'm not sure what you mean. The speedos are plug and play as-is.

                About 1 of every 3 speedos I encounter has either a non-functioning mag needle motor or mysteriously the numbers won't roll. It can be a number of reasons, likely linked to the rear soldering, but I find it easier to just source more units. I would try another jy speedo that has a not-melted looking back.

                        update:

                        i haven't forgotten about this thread, but the past two months have proven to be fruitless in my hunt for clusters. i've been to different yards over a dozen times and have come up with two total. really disappointing. until i can find a more viable source for getting speedo units, i'm stagnant in getting these out. i sincerely apologize for those of you who have been waiting forever.

                            well a this pace, one gauge a month isn't going to cut it. i'm going to have to start driving out of the los angeles/anaheim/sfv area. i have one that will be pm'd/sent out this week, but after that i'm on an as-available basis..

                              Alright, about to get cracking on these again! I will now be carrying odometergears.com gears, both motometer and vdo units. Starting next week I should have units ready to ship, but there will be an increase in price because of the higher operating costs of running with the most legit gears. I think the new price will come out to $75 tested, shipped. Sorry about the delay, school and sparse units have held me back.
