Does anyone have a glass lens for a airguide speedometer that I can purchase? I hate to spend big dollars on a guage when I just need a lens.
Thanks Sam |

Sam,
It all depends what type of speedometer you have. I have an SN 87 and the glass are removable. They are cracked so I need to replace them. Somebody suggest to replace them with a watch glass. Those are the crystal glasses you use on chemistry glass. I bought them online only for a few dollars. You will still need to buy a diamond drill bit to make the hole for the adjustment. I measure the old one and I was able to find the same size. Good luck. |

BTW, this is the place I bought them. They cost less than $2 each. http://www.sciencestuff.com/prod/L-gs/1320 - Chemistry Watch Glass

Sam,
Glad to hear that will work for you. FYI, the diamond drill bit I bought is for my dremel. I guess you want the speed. I haven't done mine therefore I don't know how hard is to drill a hole on glass. It shouldn't be, I hope. That's why I bought four in case I screw up  .
Good luck, Anthony |
