Classic VW Beetle Second Gen. Speedometer Rebuild and LED Install 

The video helped alot and I put in the LED light but did it in blue.Looks awesome thank you

Excellent video! Post a link to the led strip for the ones who’d like to do the same mod 🤙

Little lengthy but very clear,, Thank you

Thank you from Holland. My Mexico beetle meter is almost the same. He is up and running again.

Dope bro thanks 🫡💯👑shouts from England 🇬🇧

Excellent video. I’ll tackle my 71SB and my 73SB following your steps. Thanks

Way to think outside the box. Never thought about adding a led strip.

Awesome video thanks. Now ready to rebuild mine!

Thanks for the video. It's the best one that resembles mine. You've allowed me to tackle this myself for my '74 VW Thing. There are a few minor differences but 98% identical. My glass is actually polycarbonate of something and it had no gasket. What kind of grease do you recommend?

thats badass! great work & video 👍👍

awesome upgrade and video.

Well done, thank you!

Great video. What do the Roman numerals I, II and III indicate?

LED link? Is this a service I can pay you to provide on my '73 Standard Type 1 Bug? I don't need the Odo reset, just everything else. Thank you for this excellent guide!

Great video ! Would the LED connection need a resistor ? Or just connect it ? Thanks for your time big fan keep up the great work on VW DYI . Alex NJ

Also I do like the led lights. Do you have the product info on the lights all the ones I find are about 1/2in wide and I think that’s to wide. Thanks

Ppl like me use videos like yours when we run into problems. Like I did rebuilding my speedometer. The two toughest parts were resetting the miles and putting the back of the speedometer back on. Lining up the tiny little wire in the tiny little hole. Your video was very informative until you skipped showing the two hardest parts and cut away only to return with the part fixed but didn’t show how to fix it. Other than that it was okay. On another note I believe people like me don’t necessarily go looking for these videos unless we run into problems with something we are doing. If I find the video that helps fix my problems I mostly skip past all the BS ppl say and do to make their videos fancy and go right to the meat of my problems. Thanks for making them they help most of the time.

Great info.👍

Is it legal to run the mileage back? I thought it was.

What are the light bulbs u used I can't find the model name of the exact bulb model number online

Is it possible to buy the piece that the speedometer cable goes into? My old speedo cable rusted into that pin/gear. I finally got the cable off but a piece of the cable is still stuck in there so I cant get another cable in there far enough to turn the gear 100% of time but will work sometime. I want to take the speedo apart and replace that piece, I might even be able to remove the broken piece with it apart but didn't want to risk not having the piece before starting this. This is for a 74 Acapulco Thing.

Would you be willing to rebuild my 74 super beetle speedometer?

What size LED strip is that?

could you add a colored led light strip such as green instead of white

Where can I find parts ?

informative video but the guys hands go out of shot way too much kinda frustrating!

Most of your videos are helpful, but it be really nice if you would show the difficult parts instead of cutting away and then just showing them done back up so in my opinion, your video isn’t very damn helpful
