Stupid lesson learned

[GREEN light BLITZ]

Tried to take a short cut...:bang head: I wanted my lens off my speedometer and didnt want to take apart the WHOLE thing,just the lense.So I tried to pry a little on the ring that holds it in and shattered the lense...anyone know where to get one REAL cheap?Otherwise Im leavin it as a reminder not to take short cuts.And to think, I used to wonder how the hell you broke a speedo glass...:shot:

I am not sure I have a good speedo complete on hand. I do have a bad one with good lense and would trade you out if you wanted for cheap. You'd have to remove the lense from this one and install it into yours (it can be done). OR - you can cut one out of whatever and put it in yours. My digital gauge has a red lense in place and you can't see anything until the gauge turns on.

Not cheap and it is in kilometres http://cgi.ebay.com.au/VMAX-SPEEDO-...m3ca543dce8&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14#ht_500wt_975 and it is in Oz and it doesn't have that annoying red 55 indicator.Cheers Kevman
