new speedo's ARE AVAILABLE from
BMW if you just want to replace it and
motor on with accurate readings.
otherwise find a junk gauge and
pick out the bits and fiddle-pfhart

may also have 'em for '02s. You might also try a speedo repair shop.
If you find your gear has split and spins on its shaft, folks have successfully super glued the gear back together and to its shaft...worth a try as super glue is cheap!

They should have what you want, but you'll probably have to call 'em because their web site doesn't have specific applications. 800-466-2880. _________________ '69 Nevada sunroof--"Wolfgang"--bought new
