Question 911 Speedo

Greetings all,

I have spent a lot of time looking at different websites regarding speedometers. Does anyone know a place that sells replacement speedos that are in good shape and working. I dont want to just buy one from a web site that I havent bought from before. If it was new I wouldn't worry, but this is a old part...

I tried to repair it following the instructions on Pelican.....so, long story short, I need a new one.

1983 911SC Cabriolet

Thanks,
t.

It may still be able to send out for repair by a professional shop. Repairing what you have might cost less than repairing what you haven't even bought yet.
There's several vendors that specialize in Porsche speedo/guage repair. A search should provide their contact info.

No. Hollywood speedo (818) 761-5136 - they will even restore it so that it shows the correct mileage.

Thank you guys for the responses. I have seen No Hollywood advertisements and I am glad someone here has recommended them.

I'll second the recommendation for NHS. They have been very prompt and professional to deal with.

I believe even Bruce Anderson will recommend NHS in his writings in 'excellence'. I wouldn't hesitate a second to send my gauges to them. It seems they have been around a very long time...
