If the speedometer part works I'll take it :) I might be able to Frankenstein one together. Got a picture?

The interwebs tell me that the Omix Ada ones are junk.

Do you think you will be looking at the Speedo if your 5 is approaching 85?

I assumed one that maxed at 85 had a different rate than one that maxed at 90, so when it showed I was going 60 I would actually be going 65 or something.
