i saw a pic. of some speedo rings a while back so i decided to make some. they turned out pertty nice. they are stainless steel polished to grained finish (can be made to look like chrome), milled on a lathe to just the right thickness. real easy to install, just take off your cluster, unscrew the back and pop them in. anyway i have an extra 8 sets that are for sale if anyone is interested, $30.00 a set (2 rings) shipped USA only.

Look awesome. How do they stay put? Two sided tape?

they fit perfectly in the top part of the cluster plus slight pressure (very slight) from it being screwed together, 500mi. and no rattling or movement yet.

I’m sure he still has some, just be patient and he will reply to your request.

It may take a few years, as his last post was in 2016... it shouldn’t be much longer

But I am going to cut up some polished stainless pipe I have at the shop tomorrow:eagerness: I like the look.

Marzietto
09-29-2020, 09:01 PM
I’ve seen his last post was in 2016.. someone of you has any contact to ask him about rings?

I got inspired by you reviving this necro-thread:)

Found some 3" polished stainless from an exhaust tip project in the scrap pile. Chopped off 3/8" sections, polished the inside with a dremel. Bam!
