What's missing from this picture?

Long story short, I bought this Cuda project. It has a tach in the place of the speedometer.

I like the look, but I want/need a speedometer... more specifically, one with an odometer.

There are some 2 1/16" digital speedometers out there that I could mount on the A-pillar or something, but theey don't have odometers. I think that will drive me nuts.

Anybody got a suggestion, or should I just yank the tach and mount it elsewhere.

Most of the time you really need to know the road speed you'll be in top gear. Use math to compute the rpm at a couple of popular speeds and memorize it.

It's the odometer I'll miss more than the speedometer.

Edit: Found a 2 1/16" w/odometer from Dakota Digital.
