http:\/\/www.ecosmotors.com\/parts.html<\/a> have a very nice digital speedo that is drop in replacement for the VW. They list upto ’67, but it should be adaptable. I’m considering my own project to make a similar panel, but replace all the controls.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Removed dash, scrubbed all the gauges. Decided to use the radio slot for the 3 gauges: AMPS, VOLTS and AUX. Need to enlarge top and bottom of the gauge to make it fit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
