I am selling a Speedhut GPS speedometer that I removed from my Europa. I installed it new, put 500 miles on it, then replaced it with another Speedhut speedometer that looked just a little more OEM.
Comes with all pieces required for installation (except an inline 5 amp fuse you will need to supply), and instructions.
It worked great when I took it out. They sell new for $270, I am asking $180 shipped in the U.S. only. PayPal only.
Pics I have are too large, so if you're interested drop me a line at tlbrace2008@yahoo.com and I'll send them along.
Offering to this group first, before going ebay.
Includes an extra bezel. I was going to put 'Smiths' on the face using dry transfer letters, but realized I could get SMITHS put on the next one I ordered by Speedhut.
As I said, it worked great when removed from the car, but I cannot guarantee because I have no control over how it's installed.

I'm not interested in the speedo (I'm in the process of changing out my stock Smiths speedo with a Smiths electronic speedo because it looked the closest to stock) but these look pretty close to stock - maybe about as stock looking as mine. They look like a VERY good alternative to the stock speedo!

Thanks for the comments. They really are clever. One guy told me once: Well...they won't work when you're in a tunnel.
True. That's true.
But I spent 99.9999999999% of my time and miles outside of tunnels...so....
Along with going with something like a Pertronix ignition, this type of mod is one of the modern enhancements that might be worth not going OEM (unless you're putting your car in a show like Pebble Beach).
