Odometer - Speedo

Hi Guys.. Changed my dash over to a nice set of clocks.. however.. my speedo has trip 1 & 2 but no odometer..
My insurance says 'must have odometer' as I use limited mileage insurance..
I want to keep my clocks so I'm looking for a - simple - small digital speedo with odometer.
Can anyone suggest or have one that I can tag onto the pulse output on my type 9 box..
cheers

Cheapest Acewell that will run from a gearbox transducer would be the 3254 at £118.99 + P & P, as usual can give discount to lcb if we are dealing direct. It's quite a sophisticated unit tho' so actually does a lot more than just speedo/tacho/odo.





I no longer run Furore Products or Furore Cars Ltd, but would still highly recommend them for Acewell dashes, projector headlights, dominator headlights, indicators, mirrors etc, best prices in the UK! Take a look at http://www.furoreproducts.co.uk/ or find more parts on Ebay, user names furoreltd & furoreproducts, discounts available for LCB users.
Don't forget Stainless Steel Braided brake hoses, made to your exact requirements in any of around 16 colours. http://shop.ebay.co.uk/furoreproducts/m.html?_dmd=1&_ipg=50&_sop=12&_rdc=1

Is there an OEM speedo/odometer you could harvest and have visible under the bonnet rather than on your dash?

a while ago, there was a thread
http://www.locostbuilders.co.uk/viewthread.php?tid=190357&page=1
which shows a simple industrial counter can be used for odometer functions.
but as Stot suggests another under the bonnet would work, - even use the one you have taken out!

I used to use a push bike speedo,(£7 ) and as you calibrate it yourself, you could make it read what ever you want

but ive NEVER gone over the 5k allowance I pay for

Thats was probably spelt wrong, or had some grammer, that the "grammer police have to have a moan at

Spa design speedometer is small and has a odometer, could be mounted hidden away somewhere, under the dash, in the engine compartment etc. Odometer function is there, just not on you main gauges?
