I've installed a GPS speedo from SpeedHut and am very pleased. It was super easy to wire and install. Required absolutely no calibration and is dead nuts accurate. I did have problems, that SpeedHut was very good about dealing with. It turned out that the speedo was fine, but my car was the fault. After three installations and multiple rechecks of my wiring, I just happened to notice that the needle went nuts, when my radiator fan kicked on. My alternator was a 66 amp, old style Ford unit, with an external regulator, and did just fine keeping my battery charged but the 30 amp draw of the fan created a voltage spike that the electronics in the speedometer didn't like. I installed an alternator putting out 118 amps and my problem is cured. The speedo has many GPS features, but won't give driving directions. It will give altitude, directional heading, top speed attained, 0-60 and 1/4 mile time, has a resetable trip odometer,and there is a procedure to set the odometer to your old speedometer's reading, or what ever you want. The unit is made in America (well, Utah) and the folks at SpeedHut give all their gauges a lifetime warranty. Their customer service is excellent. The new speedo can be customized to match existing gauges, which is included in the price. Size, face color, pointer style and color, bezel shape and they'll even put "Stewart Warner, or what ever, on the face. They also have custom images that can be used for a very reasonable price.(I got a Cobra image on mine, go figure) That's my 3 1/2¢ worth. Check their web site for more info.
