I would like to have the innards of my odometer fixed... I dont want a new guage or a guage that looks like new. I simply want my odometer fixed. I read the DIY over on Pelican but i fear I would completely destroy my guage. I searched but didnt find a service or a person. Any recommendations?

Thanks!

New Vintage USA is a member vendor here (Marks914) and they gave me a very reasonable quote to rebuild my speedometer for exactly the same reason.

I haven't taken them up on it yet, but people seem to like their work.

just pick up a used one & send it off. Or find a used one that works & go with that. I have a few should the need arise
