I had a big problem getting the speedo converted to electric. First it was a long delay, then the job was not done to my standards. Finally I decided to do most of this myself, except for refinishing the gage face.

First of all, all the shops that offer this, patch up your original speedo gage face, as the odometer holes will be different in size and location. To me this is not a satisfactory solution. I did a little reserach, and found that the tachometer gage face uses the exact same stamping as the speedometer, of course minus the holes for the odometer. What I did is cut the hole for the odometer in an old tach gage face. This way I had a correct gage face that is not a patch job. Here the hole is being cut in a milling machine.
