Suffers from the design flaw that, on at least an Autometer speedo, the point at which it stops screwing on is when it clamps on the center piece of the speedo that spins. Will brake any cable. I now have to get a large washer to space it out some. I suppose you could argue that this is a failure on Autometer's part to design a housing that protects this piece. Either way I now have to buy yet another cable.

Your'e using a VDO part on an autometer gauge????? And it doesn't work?????? Hmmmm go figure :doh0715: Your gauge cluster is turning out awesome though. Why does'nt autometer make their own adapter?

They might. I don't remember exactly why I picked this one. I think I searched around here or something. One day all the gauges might work also!

Looks like Autometer recommends somebody else to find what you need to use their speedos.
