<div dir="ltr">I thought I should just give one final update on my speedo repair experience to share with the list.<div>Based on this thread, I contacted both Nisonger & Foreign Speedo (that Micheal recommended). I explained what the issues I knew were with my speedo, including a broken pointer needle, and asked 2 basic questions: What would be a rough time frame for having the speedo repaired?; What would be a rough estimate? The results were very eye opening to say the least!<div>Nisongers' response: 4 - 6 weeks, $185 to open the speedo & basic service + cost of any required parts (pointer = $25)</div><div>Foreign Speedo's response: 2 weeks, $125 to open the speedo & full service + the cost of any required parts (pointer = $18)</div><div>Needless to say, I decided to go with Foreign Speedo, and I am sure glad I did. They basically had to replace <b>everything</b> inside the speedo except the odometer assembly! and the total bill was just slightly more than what it would have cost for the basic service from Nisonger + pointer!</div></div><div>Once I finally got the speedo back (USPS "lost" it for over a month - but that's another story :-( ), it was perfect. However, what really set Foregin Speedo apart was their after sales service. After re-installing the speedo, the cable was only turning intermittently. Preston @ Foreign Speedo correctly diagnosed it as the original angle drive, which they also repair. Unfortunately from my USPS experience, I didn't want to have the possibility of the same thing happening again, so Preston talked me through how to fix it myself! Then, completely unexpectedly, a few days later I received a brand new input shaft for the angle drive from them!</div><div>Oh, and did I mention that the actual repair only took a little over a week?</div><div>If only I had more speedos to repair, Foreign Speedo would get all my business.</div><div>Service like this is very hard to find these days, so help support the "little guy" - you won't be sorry!</div><div><div><br></div><div><img src="cid:ii_kbkz3tgf0" alt="20200522_125147.jpg" width="562" height="422"><br></div></div><div><br></div><div><div><img src="cid:ii_kbkz6x5g2" alt="20200618_070848.jpg" width="562" height="422"><br></div></div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Tue, Apr 14, 2020 at 8:05 PM Bruce Steele <<a href="mailto:healeybruce@roadrunner.com">healeybruce@roadrunner.com</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div lang="EN-US"><div class="gmail-m_-9059052953940035662WordSection1"><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Trebuchet MS",sans-serif">They’ve done my gauges as well.
