I had to modify the odometer to 6 digits and it took a fair bit of work to fit it to the factory face. It works, but your kits certainly make it an easier proposition to go your way
I have a couple of those 85mph speedos, but when I tried it, I couldn't get to be as accurate as the 120mph ones. But to be honest, I didn't spend a whole lot of time on it. Looks good though!
