Richard,
I had the four small gauges replaced with the white faced VDO units
nine years ago. They have worked well for me. Earlier this year, I
replaced my speedo and tach with the white Auto Meter Phantom units. Both
speedo and tach are electric and I am very happy with both of them. Auto
Meter did not offer the electric Phantom speedo in a 200 mph version so I
settled for the 160.
