Went for a cruise yesterday with friends. When I was about 50 miles from home my speedometer started screaming at me and the odometer started flaking out. Eventually the needle fell off. North Hollywood Speedometer quoted 225 to repair assuming nothing crazy happened inside. Is this something I can tackle myself or is it one to pay a professional to do? Are there other options besides North Hollywood I should consider? Thanks in advance for your input.
