For rebuilds, North Hollywood Speedometer or Palo Alto Speedometer. Both do good work. If you want to do it yourself, just buy a junker gauge. It's not that hard.

I just had some work done at Palo Alto Speedometer for my 911SC. They did good work, but if someone here on our forum does it please patronize them.

Palo Alto Speedometer really impressed me with their quality and service. Not cheap, but worth every cent.

North Hollywood Speedo replaced my coverglass, repainted the pointer and replaced the bezel on my tach for $100 a few weeks ago. They also do great work.

Mark does great work and his prices are really unbelievable. These are the gauges he did for my car.

I'll second (Third?) Mark at New Vintage.. in the more "restoration" vein, here's a before/after. He redid the panel, put a new needle on my tach, refinished the trim rings and put new plastics in.
The quad gauge is new. The smudges and dust are from my grubby paws. Before: (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/www.haphazard.com-11334-1270742746.1.jpg) After: (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/www.haphazard.com-11334-1270742746.2.jpg) |

Wow, thanks, I hadn't seen Mark's work. I now know where I'm spending part of my tax refund (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif).

He can also make it plugin or just label the wires and you can put your own connectors on them.
There's also a member vender that makes spun aluminum trim rings if you want those. Spunone |

Go to Mark! Stock tach face untoughed as not to look reburbed. Old cable drive guts removed and new stuff inside. Cool!
