Original Mechanical Speedo with electronics

[Newbee]

I have been pondering the question about how do you keep your original mechanical speedo when you upgrade to a newer electronic transmission/engine system that has VSS or Canbus.

I think I have the gauge situation sussed out using a 12 v to 6 v converter.

Has anyone else done this, what solution did you use?

I came across this when I was looking at Speedhut Speedos web site. Has anyone used one of these and is it good?

6V solid state regulator for the gauges is no prob. What is driving the sender unit at the transmission ? Does it use a conventional gear ? . I have gone the reverse converting a cable unit to electronic sender . An adaptor with sender unit took the original gear and pushed in as the cable did .
