Angle Drive Replacement?

Postby Dan 6511 » Thu Nov 22, 2018 4:56 pm

Just found these GPS to mechanical speedo convertors. This could be a possible modern replacement to the angle drive. Mount it near the steering column with a short cable up the speedo. Has anyone come across these before?

Thanks Mike. Good to know it actually works then. I might get one of them when my car is eventually running :thumbsup:
